As a math person, the idea of anyone at that level of math or science dismissing something because Euler worked on it is ridiculous. Euler revamped the world of math in many ways and his formulas are the foundation of a ton of different things in lots of areas. That'd be like them saying well lets discount Newton's laws of motion because that's ancient. It's not wrong and it was discovered by a genius. Loved the movie as a whole though!

Yes that specific method isn't used every time. But he dismisses it as "that's ancient" if one thing Euler did is ancient so is pretty much everything else he did. And I can't think of a branch of mathematics where one of Euler's theorems or identities or Euler's something isn't an integral part of it. He's one of the most brilliant mathematicians to have ever lived and dismissing his stuff as ancient is pretty ridiculous, as I'm sure even before they were using Euler's ancient method they were probably using 12 of his other theorems and identities as it's unavoidable in high level math. I've been a math major for the past 4 years and I can't think of one math class I've had so far that hasn't featured a "what euler did in this area" day of class where the professor talks about how much euler did for this area usually with a history lesson on euler and some random euler trivia, and I transferred schools in the middle. My point is I'm pretty sure most of the math world loves Euler and dismissing his work is just not done lol.

As a math major, I feel like I have to explain why I suspect nobody considered Euler's method at first. Euler's method is a form of numerical computing by approximating a complex formula by a combination of several simpler formulas. Basically, you draw several very tiny lines between the points and use that to approximately represent the function (it's actually more involved than that, but that would take longer to explain) The idea is that the smaller the distance between the points, the more exact your final answer will be. However, when you decrease the distance between the points, you increase the number of calculations you need to do. Nowadays, numerical methods like this are usually done with a computer, which will generate 1000 calculations before you finish getting your coffee, but back in the day this movie is set computers were brand new. All these calculations would have to be done by hand, and although that's what they hired "computers" for, the regular NASA scientists would have probably seen it a cumbersome, and may have forgotten about it years before.

My Dad taught himself Calculus so he could be a machinist. Since it wasn't a subject in his dinky high school, and he got drafted into the Army, he must have done it in his spare time in the Army. After that he got a job as a boring mill operator for Vought. He worked on probably every aviation and space program there was for 30 years. He was laid off for a couple years, so he worked at Lockheed in the Skunkworks. I remember once when I was a kid, we had a class project to report what our parents did. I asked Mom, "Directory assistance supervisor for Southwestern Bell. I asked Dad, "I make potato chips." Many years later he said he told me that because it was classified at the time. Probably the Regulus missile. And he LOVED messing with everybody in a myriad of creative ways. THE original funny bone.

I was about to lose the year but on the last test I got 19. The next semester I got 17, 20 and 19, the best grade. Math is such a joy.

It's close enough to sound right, it rings bells in a an engineer's head, but its not quite real. The problems not in the shape of the orbit (that is, whether the orbit is open or closed) but rather in how to get a numeric solution from a problem without a closed -form math solution. You go back to numeric approximations (such as Euler's integration algorithm), which require a lot of number crunching. Guess what changed to make that a possibility.

I see a lot of comments here stating that Euhler's method is such a basic part of mathematics training that it should have been obvious to everyone in that room. Now, I never got beyond basic high school geometry (history was always my thing), so I don't know if that's true. But I DO know problem-solving, and if there's anything I've learned it's that people can be so laser-focused on certain methods and paradigms that they can overlook the most 'obvious' thing, even if it's right in front of their face. And I know enough about the early days of NASA to recognize that they were dealing with technology so cutting-edge that, often, they didn't even know what questions to ask, let alone find the answers. So their natural inclination would be to use the most modern methodologies available. In that frame of mind, I can understand how they could easily overlook some ancient method, however 'obvious' it may seem to an outside observer. Just my two cents...

These Method didn't provide the "exact" solution, but the numerical approximation was close enough for all intents and purposes, and given any error range, I could easily calculate how many iterations of the algorithm were necessary to be within the desired error. Like Pythagoras' Theorem, it may be old but it works.

I'm not a historian, nor do I want to dig through a NASA historical database, but I wouldn't be surprised if other numerical methods like this were used over Euler's. I would think the movie needed something simple enough for the audience to understand. Easier to use Euler's instead of "fourth order Runge-Kutta". Also, no scientist would be saying "That's ancient" regarding a mathematical principle/method. Pythagorean Theorem is "ancient", but it still gets the job done. Still, fantastic movie.

@@Chasstful "Katherine’s specialty was calculating the trajectories for space shots which determined the timing for launches. “I’d ask (another section at NASA), ‘Where do you want (the astronauts) to come down?’ And they’d tell me the spot and I’d work backward from there.” An early achievement was correctly computing the ‘launch window’ for astronaut Alan Shepard’s Mercury mission. His successful splashdown at sea on May 5, 1961 marked the return of the first American in space. As the work grew more complex, Katherine was tasked with calculations to propel space capsules into orbit around the moon and to send landing units to and from the lunar surface. She also earned kudos for plotting backup navigational charts that would enable astronauts to guide their ships by the stars in case of electronic failures. In 1962 computers were used for the first time to calculate John Glenn’s history making orbit around Earth. But, according to Katherine, NASA officials called on her to verify the numbers. “They knew I had done most of the [the calculations], so they let me do it,” she said."

The beginning of this movie showed a young, Black girl sitting in a hallway looking at the shapes on the wall across from her. She couldn't have been more than 8 or 9 years old. She started naming the shapes, "isosceles triangle", "equilateral triangle", "parallelogram".......

Euler’s method is a first-order scheme for solving first-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs) numerically, i,.e, solve dy/dx = f(x,y) subject to y(xo) = yo. It is indeed ancient, after all, Euler lived in the 1700’s, but his method lives on because it can be easily implemented, even by hand and a slide rule (as they most likely did in the period this movie shows). Nowadays, Euler’s method is used mostly to illustrate what not to do in the numerical solution of ODEs as it is the worst method in terms of the numerical error introduced. Runge-Kutta methods of the 4th and 5th order are preferred for their accuracy.

Name one male engineer or mathematician working in her department. Where is there recognition or reward? Did you know that the names of all the real-world men working with these ladies was changed so that their families would not sue the studios for wrongful defamation of character? Katherine never suffered any of the things portrayed in this movie. She records that her co-workers were always gracious to her. Far from not wanting to share a coffee pot with her, she was invited to eat lunch with them on the first day. She never once used the "colored bathroom", and only once was questioned about it - by a woman. The engineers she worked with didn't care. There was no smashing down the "Whites Only" sign. Federal facilities had been racially integrated back in the 1940s. The whole movie is an exercise in deliberate deception intend to make you shudder and make you angry. If the world would be today without racism, it would also be without this movie.

The problem in this scene is not in the dialog but on the chalkboard. Euler's method is, as she says, a method for numerical integration. What she is saying (in an abstract sense is that analytical, closed form methods don't exist for the integration she needs to do. Before computers, this was a problem, for, while numerical solutions existed, they were painful and expensive (in man-hours) to pursue. With the advent of computers (as she is illustrating in this scene), suddenly the old ways (well, some were old) suddenly got a new lease on life. It is a great idea only a comp sci geek would have thought of. Orbital mechanics is full of calculus; Newton had to invent Calculus (one branch of it, anyway) to prove his theory of Gravity explained Kepler's laws of planetary motion. The problem is that the chalkboards don't contain a single integration sign (it is a tall stretch-S thing with numbers at the top and bottom, followed by a math expression and usually with a "dx" following - there's one on the first page she opens to in the book) on them. The second page opened in the book contains differential equations in a derivation of the method, but on the next page you can see where the next section after Euler's method is the Runge-Kutta method, an improvement on Euler's. Euler's method will give you bupkis unless used on an integration problem. They throw a few radicals and lots of numbers, an occasional pi and trig function, a few Greek letters and other essentially meaningless stuff, most of which is amenable to immediate reduction with slip-sticking (are there actually any slide rules in the film? Every engineer had one, or several, until HP obsoleted them in about 1976; my well-worn collection sits on a shelf in my bedroom), and the producers expect it to be enough. Any sophomore physics or engineering student could have done a better job at decorating the boards.
@JohnH013010 ай бұрын
Euler's method IS specifically applicable to systems of first order differential equations. Such equations involve a rate, for example speed, or [distance travelled] /]time], often expressed as [dx/dt]. For a body in orbit, dx/dt would be a function of such things as: gravitational acceleration, of not just the earth but also other nearly celestial bodies. other acceleration, such as rocket thrust atmospheric drag weight, which may need to be continually recalculated due to fuel consumption None of these would normally be described using a integral formula. Now it may be that Euler's method can be used to numerically solve problems for which the applicable formulas do include integrals. But that does not in turn imply that an integral is a necessary ingredient of an Euler method application.

Do you not have a single physicist, applied mathematician or engineer on your team? Euler's method is like the first thing used when one decides to get the behaviour of a difficult differential equation without going through the hassle of solving it analytically. And btw, if Euler's method is ancient, so is everything else on that board. The laws of celestial mechanics have been known for quite a while now

Perhaps so, now that you have computers fast enough to do millions of operations per second, making short work of the number crunching Euler's method entails. The characters in the movie did not have that capability available when they were being educated, and had not considered how computers could be used to apply Euler's method to solve such problems quickly. That's the whole point of the scene.
