Welcome to my home page. The address, m759.com, comes from the word "Mathieu" and from the 759 octads in the Miracle Octad Generator of R. T. Curtis. These are related to the mathematics in the first link at left.

Personal information: I am 69 years old, a male caucasian, and retired from work as a systems analyst/programmer. My interests are chiefly mathematical (see this page's links) and literary (see links on page two). Some sort of relationship between my mathematical and literary interests is sketched on page three. See also my web journal.

Education: Public schools, then sporadic attendance at Harvard some forty years ago (class of 1964), followed by more serious studies at a community college and at State University of New York at Fredonia (M.A., mathematics, 1973).
