“Hidden Figures” (Theodore Melfi, 2016) is a film based on a true story. The film is the untold story of female African-American mathematicians who served a vital role in NASA during the early years of the U.S. space program. This film is based on a book of the same name and follows three black women who worked in NASA in 1961. The three main characters are Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson), a brilliant mathematician, Dorothy Vaughan (Academy Winner Octavia Spencer), the leader of the “colored human computers”, and finally, Mary Jackson (the singer Janelle Monáe) who tries to be the NASA’s first female engineer. All three women make progress in their attempts to reach their goals but with much difficulty, based on their gender and their race.  The cast of the film also includes the 90s star Kevin Costner, Academy winner Mahershala Ali, Kirsten Dunst (Mary Jane in Sam Raimi’s trilogy “Spider-Man”) and Jim Parsons (Sheldon in “The Big Bang Theory”). The st...

La probabilité Les probabilités correspondent à la branche des mathématiques qui cherche à mesurer le caractère aléatoire de ce qui pourrait survenir.   Calculer une probabilité revient donc à quantifier la possibilité qu'un événement se produise lors d'une expérience qui ne découle que du hasard. La probabilité dépend du contexte dans lequel elle se trouve. En effet, elle varie selon l'événement étudié, le type de probabilité recherchée ou le type d'expérience effectuée. Il est possible de faire l'analyse de la probabilité d'un événement et ainsi déterminer le nombre de résultats possibles. De plus, à partir de la probabilité, on peut déterminer les chances de gains ou de pertes entre différents jeux ou événements. Pour un événement, une probabilité est égale au rapport entre le nombre de résultats favorables et le nombre de résultats possibles de l'expérience aléatoire.

  Cultural heritage   is the legacy of physical artifacts and intangible attributes of a group or society   that is inherited from past generations. Cultural heritage includes tangible culture  (such as buildings, monuments, landscapes, books, works of art, and artifacts), intangible culture (such as folklore, traditions, language, and knowledge), and natural heritage (including culturally significant landscapes, and biodiversity). The deliberate act of keeping cultural heritage from the present for the future is known as  conservation. Cultural heritage and society   Cultural heritage is the fabric of our lives and societies. It surrounds us in the buildings of our towns and cities; our landscapes, natural sites, monuments and archaeological sites.It is not only made up of literature, art and objects but also by the crafts we learn, the stories we tell, the food we eat, the songs we sing and the films we watch. Cultural heritage brings comm...
