Picture of the Week Pascal's Triangle


One of the most interesting numerical patterns in this world in my opinion is Pascal's Triangle. A triangle that uses geometric arangement to tell binomial coefficeints in the shape of a triangle. This triangle was named after Blaise Pascal, but this is unfair considering that others before him had studied the same patterns.Personally I can say that this triangle has came in very handy when I was learning the long division of algebraic equations..
