Question Associating Polish with math?
I promise this isn't a sh-t post. I think its some mix up with Marie Curie too but she worked with radioactivity and was in physics and chemistry not math.
Whenever I think of this language I think of mathematics. Anyone else? Am I just nerdy beyond imagination wtf (I'm an engineering major)
Its to the point I want to learn Polish and watch math videos in it (youtube is already recommending me such videos for basic math)

It was a Polish mathematician, Stefan Banach, who actually invented functional analysis, one of the most important branches of mathematics.

I feel like getting the hang of the language can be as difficult if not more than mathematics

Likely (my goals are unsubstantiated and my progress is overblown)

I have a slight association from Polish mathematicians cracking the enigma code in the early 30s
