Re\u200bc\u200breational\u200b \u200bMathematics \u200b (RM). Today it is clear for most mathematicians and educators that the enjoyment RM provides is an asset in the process of bringing mathematics to all.<\/p>\n
The historians among us might take the opportunity to remind us that RM has been also, for millennia, a source of inspiration for more prosaic scientific activities.<\/p>\n
RMC-V (G4G- Europe) will be yet another high level meeting where some mathematical pearls will be shared and appreciated. It will be relevant in many ways (scientific, educational,…) and entertaining. What else should we ask for?<\/p>\n
