      “Are there infinitely many twin primes?” A twin prime is two primes which are distance 2 apart, for example 3 and 5 is an example of a twin prime. Unfortunately, my favourite maths question doesn’t yet have an answer. There are many great questions in mathematics. Any question that interests you is a great question.

    I like thinking about simple mathematics in complicated ways. For example, have you ever asked a 2-year-old to count anything? It is surprisingly hard to learn to count reliably – there are many different skills in it!
