Writing 21st Century Proofs Examine the paper How to Write a 21st Century Proof by Leslie Lamport. https://lamport.azurewebsites.net/pubs/proof.pdf . You will notice that portions of the paper are quite accessible to the intended audience for this class, while other parts are less accessible. Describe which is which and why. Read the accessible parts. Look up the proof of the Mean Value Theorem in the book and notes from your Calculus class. Compare and contrast with the discussion in the Lamport paper. How might you rewrite the calculus proof that you were given in order to improve it? What is Dr. Lamport's main thesis and what is your assessment of it? (By the way, although a mathematician by trade, Dr. Lamport received the prestigious Turing Prize in computer science.)
