From the Paper:

"Numbers play a large part in our everyday lives, from the time we get up, how long we cook our food, the distances we travel, and other such aspects, many of which we take for granted. A scholar who played a large part in the way we view certain numbers and objects people use regularly is Pythagoras. Pythagoras was a philosopher, medical practitioner, astronomer, and mathematician. Although he contributed many thoughts and ideas to society, such as those of the Pythagorean Society, the Pythagorean Theory is by far the most practiced and well-known."
