Matt Parker (in addition to organising the next MathsJam) has just published a column in the Guardian about How to win a million dollars with maths.

We're looking forward to the next column in the series! And in the meantime you can also read more about the Millennium Prize Problems and the Riemann Hypothesis on Plus.
