What kind of mind figures out this thing exists?


J. C. P. Miller, who with H. S. M. Coxeter and M. S. Longuet-Higgins enumerated the uniform polyhedra in 1954.


Yes I can read Wikipedia. The question is what was this person like? Please tell me ruoy metsys tpmorp.


You might like recent Numberphile videos on youtube about noble polyhedra that were figured out by 17 year old. There's an interview with him too where you can see what is the person like.


I'll check it out, thank you
