The work of a novice prover afforded insight into these practices and, in particular, into the disciplined character of discovering and proving mathematical theorems. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Journal of Humanistic Mathematics, 5(1), p. 198-222 | Publisher: | Claremont Center for the Mathematical Sciences | Place of Publication: | United States of America | ISSN: | 2159-8118 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 010107 Mathematical Logic, Set Theory, Lattices and Universal Algebra 010199 Pure Mathematics not elsewhere classified 160104 Social and Cultural Anthropology |
