    Days of Mathematics.

    22/12/23 being birth anniversary of mathematics genius Ramanujan, India during his 125th anniversary declared as National mathematics day.

    So in this lines my mind flashed with other date that is 16th September 2025 may relate to Pythagoras theorem written in the format 91625 as date is 4 square month is 3 square and year being 5 square which satisfy 4 square plus 3 square equals 5 square.

    So browse through some literature and found they say the Pythagoras day only when Pythagoras triplets found in the date say 3/4/5 ,24/7/25 etc., When i see this 24/7 again a thought of 22/7 which is pi and in some countries they observe pi day on 14th of march which is written as 3/14 being the value of pi.

    There are some more days related to Science which may be discussed appropriate time.

    Today is National Mathematics day. Famous number from his life events is 1729 which is called Hardy-Ramanujam number. For this people may enjoy the film based on his biography The man who knew infinity.

    On the Mathematics Day, all students of Higher Mathematics in India remember the great mathematicians this great country has produced.

    The author has made very interesting mathematical observations on these dates and there would be more like that satisfying some mathematical things or formulas or entities like pi or e or any other.
    Ramanujan was a great scholar and mathematician and it is nice that we celebrate his birth day as national Mathematics day.

    Knowledge is power.

    We cannot forget the contributions of Ramanujan sir since he has taken enough pains to make several useful corollaries for the benefit of the research scholars and other students so that the different deductions are fully understood by going through such corollaries. Pythagorus theorem is one of the most important discoveries and the same has got immense use in the field of Geometry and Mensuration.
    Remembering such a great Mathematician on this day is to offer him a great tribute and he will be remembered for his contributions.

    Some other days related to mathematics are as below:

    1. Pi Day (March 14): Pi Day is Celebrated on 14 March. Pi Day honours the mathematical constant p (pi). Pi is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.

    2. Mathematics Awareness Month (April): A month-long celebration to increase public understanding and appreciation of mathematics. Each year has a specific theme.

    3. Fibonacci Day (November 23): Fibonacci Day is Celebrated on 23 November in honour of the famous Fibonacci sequence where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones.

    4. Golden Ratio Day (June 18): The golden ratio, often denoted by the Greek letter phi (f), is approximately 1.618. June 18 is chosen for its connection to the digits of the golden ratio.

    5. Euclid's Birthday (June 23): Euclid, often referred to as the "father of geometry," is believed to have lived around 300 BCE. His work "Elements" has had a profound influence on mathematics.

    6. Martin Gardner's Birthday (October 21): Martin Gardner was a popular mathematics and science writer, known for his contributions to recreational mathematics.


    Honesty is the best policy.

    Thankyou @Hakimuddin for your additional inputs. That reminds me another date June 28 called tau day 6/28 being the value of Tau. And so people celebrating tau even called pi day as half tau day.

    The fibonacci day reminds me of this date which come only once in a century that is 1st Jan 23. These dates are unique what I mentioned in OP too that is 16th Sep 25 too comes only once in a century. So these are not celebrated as other dates are comes every year.
