Ugh. The writing is so bad.<p>&gt; a series of trigonometry tables which scientists claim are more accurate than any available today.<p>Given that we are able to calculate the exact value of any trigonometric function, the above sentence is pretty meaningless. Not to mention, if we wanted to calculate any trig function to some given arbitrary precision, we can do that pretty much instantly these days.<p>I&#x27;m sure this is a really cool find. I just wish they&#x27;d be a little more careful with their wording.

<i>&quot;With Plimpton 322 we see a simpler, more accurate trigonometry that has clear advantages over our own.&quot;</i><p>I wonder if there&#x27;s anywhere one could learn this simpler, more accurate trigonometry.

It seems that each and every news outlet has this, see:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=15097301" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=15097301</a>
