symbol for zero was such a great step forward in the development
of number? This course will answer these questions along with

probability, cryptography, geometry and problem solving. You will have the opportunity to hone your cipher-breaking skills and learn how mathematics can help you win on TV game shows. Is there a way mathematics can help you win the lottery? Come and find out.
