Why Is Thomas Gerald Room Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Thomas Gerald Room FRS FAA was an Australian mathematician who is best known for Room squares. He was a Foundation Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science. Biography Thomas Room was born on 10 November 1902, near London, England. He studied mathematics in St John's College, Cambridge, and was a wrangler in 1923. He continued at Cambridge as a graduate student, and was elected as a fellow in 1925, but instead took a position at the University of Liverpool. He returned to Cambridge in 1927, at which time he completed his PhD, with a thesis supervised by H. F. Baker. Room remained at Cambridge until 1935, when he moved to the University of Sydney, where he accepted the position of Chair of the Mathematics Department, a position he held until his retirement in 1968.
