Great work Jamie!

Apologies, I didn't realise that a more detailed version had been posted at an earlier date.

Thank you for sharing the in depth link.

From my own personal experience I believe that the overall way that maths is taught at a young age is broken (at least in the UK).

The first time that I actually got to apply mathematics to an interesting real life scenario wasn't until I studied economics at A level, by which time most people (predominantly women) had lost interest an opted to take less maths intensive subjects.

This is my experience of early mathematics, I'd be interested to hear if most peoples were the same.
