This folder contains Notebooks illustrating how to solve several problems in the Project Euler catalogue (recreational mathematics) as well as some cool problems / hypothesis / conjectures in Mathematics
Miscellaneous notebooks including:
- "PSF sampling". A notebook on basic Fourier optics and how the different parameters affect the sampling of the PSF
- "PowerSpectrum Wavefron". A notebook on how the Power Spectral Density of a Zernike wavefront map decays with spatial frequency, and the influence on the RMS
- "Rabbits and Wolfs". A Python script on the game which mimics ecosystems and populations
