The mathematical modeling portion of the workshop made it clear how long it was since I last took real math. That being said, I definitely found Gapminder to be a very cool website and potentially a great way to model data in the future. Numb3r5 count was interesting as well. Although I don’t know how often I will use it, having various groups of data to test a model could come in handy. Overall, the second half of the day felt like a nice chance to get myself re-acquainted with math and all the wonderful things math can do.
