Andrew Wiles: what does it feel like to do maths?

>> Now what you have to handle when you start doing mathematics as an older child or as an adult is accepting this state of being stuck.

I left High School with a terrible taste in my mouth for math, which is partly why I dropped my STEM major for a liberal arts degree. Now in my late twenties, I am about to start taking math courses at a local community college. I think the hours I've put in debugging code has given me an enjoyment of being stuck for hours or days on end. Hopefully this will help me experience a renewed enjoyment of mathematics.
