There is never a shortage of talents in this world, and genius often comes from hard work. One percent inspiration is of course important, but if you don't pay attention to your efforts the day after tomorrow, even if you have the best talent, you may eventually accomplish nothing.
Just like a piece of beautiful jade, although it is of good quality, it is as humble as a tile stone without careful processing by a good craftsman. Beautiful jade and so on, not to mention people? No matter how talented a person is, he must study hard to become a talent. Otherwise, a genius may become a mediocrity, and a mediocrity will become a fool if he doesn't study.
In India, there was once a talented girl. She has extraordinary mental arithmetic ability, and the calculation speed is even faster than that of a computer. She can be called "human brain computer". But such a powerful "little genius", Hua only looked at her calculation results and knew that her calculation was wrong. What's going on here? We continue to look down.
Srinivasa Ramanujan
Before introducing this "mental arithmetic genius", we need to mention an Indian mathematician-Srinivasa Ramanujan, who is also called "human brain computer". Although they are all "human brain computers", the final outcome is quite different.
Srinivasa Ramanujan is one of the most famous mathematicians in Indian history. He didn't receive any formal education, but with his passion for mathematics and superb mental arithmetic speed, he met Bole in his life, which didn't bury his talent in mathematics. Lamanukin likes to get the calculation results directly by intuition, although he doesn't like to be proved. But when other mathematicians were present to prove it, it was found that Ramanujin's calculation results were often correct.
Although Lamanukin has no formal education, he is a rare wizard in theology and mathematics. He once wrote: hypergeometric series, divergent series, prime number theory, modular form, and discovered the 3900 formula. His mathematical theory spanned 100 years. It can be said that Ramanukin is the greatest mathematician in Indian history.
The birth of genius
Nine years after Ramanukin's death, a girl named Shakuntala Devi came to a Brahmin family in India. Shakuntala Devi's father was a priest, but he didn't want to be a priest in a temple. On the contrary, he prefers circus performance. Later, I started my own circus and performed tightrope walking, trapeze and magic every day.
Shakuntala Dewei's parents have never sent her to school for formal education because the whole family is busy with work. By chance, Xia Quintarra's father discovered that his daughter had super shorthand ability.
At that time, he was playing poker with his friends. Young Xia Quintarra walked beside them and wrote down all the cards in their hands. He draws a card at random, and Xia Quintarra can tell its suit quickly and accurately.
At that time, Xia Kun Tara's brother was studying at school. When solving this math problem, Xia Quintarra had worked out the answer in his mind when his brother was still working out the formula on the draft paper. Xia Quintarra's brother and father were very surprised. They randomly tested several math problems of Xia Quintarra, and she could tell the answers quickly, and the answers were completely correct. After discovering Xia Quintarra's super quick calculation ability and mental arithmetic ability, her father sent her to school and personally met the headmaster.
Through the test, the principal also found Xia Quintarra's extraordinary super power, and thought that she was an excellent girl, so she specially arranged for the teacher to take her. Xia Quintarra was gifted. Under the guidance of the teacher, after mastering some skills, her computing ability became more powerful. The school teacher intends to let Xia Quintarra receive formal education, but Xia Quintarra's father sees unlimited business opportunities.
He dragged Xia Kun Tara Jr. to perform arithmetic everywhere, and soon, Xia Kun Tara Jr. became popular in India. After becoming famous in India, her father took her to London to perform. In London, Xia Quintarra easily passed the tests of various universities, and then Xia Quintarra's mental arithmetic talent became popular internationally.
A "human brain computer" faster than a computer.
What really made Xia Quintarra popular was her performance in an American university. At that time, the judges chose the number 20 1 and asked Xia Quintarra and the computer to find the 23rd root of the number 20 1. Because the data is too large, the three local computing centers can't handle such a large-scale operation. For this competition, the expert group borrowed a top computer from the United States at that time.
As a result, Xia Quintarra gave the answer before the staff data was entered into the computer. It took only 50 seconds to complete such a large-scale luck, and the calculation speed was faster than that of a computer.
After this incident was reported, a famous math teacher in China only glanced at it and said, "She has miscalculated." With such a large-scale calculation, why can Hua find the mistakes in Xia Kun Tara's calculation at a glance? Does he calculate faster than Xia Kun Tara?
It turns out that the decimal number of the 23rd root of 20 1 should be 7, but the result obtained by Xia Kun Tara is 9. This result is obviously far from the correct answer. Thus, even though Xia Quintarra has a superb mental arithmetic talent and lacks acquired exercise, there are still some problems in arithmetic. Although ordinary people can't have the quick mental arithmetic ability like Xia Quintarra, they can be tested by mantissa. Although Hua questioned this, he did not deliberately correct it.
Genius regrets becoming mediocre.
It is said that Xia Quintarra's mental arithmetic talent is exhausted a little, and the calculation speed is not as good as before, because she has been performing talent everywhere for a long time, but she has neglected the efforts made the day after tomorrow. In the end, no one wanted to see her performance, and then she had to change careers and become a fortune teller. This result can be said to be very regrettable.
Lamanukin and Xia Quintarra are both called "human brain computers", but their final results are completely different. Their experience tells us that even a gifted "human brain computer" may eventually achieve nothing if we ignore the acquired learning.
Genius is still like this, let alone ordinary people. There has never been any genius in this world, only diligent people who work harder than ordinary people. If genius only exports but does not absorb, the final result can only be to hurt Zhong Yong.
