Robloxian Mathematical Society

A community of mathematicians on Roblox.

The Robloxian Mathematical Society is a community of mathematicians on Roblox, welcoming folks from all mathematical backgrounds. To become a member, simply join our Discord server. Here, you can discuss math, receive math help on your projects, and connect with fellow math enthusiasts.

What we do

  • WinterMini: A 5-lecture miniseries that taught elements of approximation theory relevant to game development. Recordings for the first 3 lectures are on YouTube.
  • Vector101: A 10-week course that taught linear algebra to game developers. Recordings for all 20 lectures are on YouTube.
  • RbxMath: A fledgling repository of mathematical packages for Roblox development, written in luau by members of our community.
  • Office Hours: A weekly 1-hour period to get help, ask questions, or just chat about math with Aidan and Ella. Hosted via Discord voice chat on Thursdays at 8pm ET.

Our friends

If you like our community, then you’ll also like metauni—a community of scholars in the metaverse. metauni hosts a weekly series of math and science seminars, and occasionally online courses, all within Roblox!
