yinmn

= yinmn, a mathematics library

== Name

I had wanted to give this library a name related to the color blue, but without arrogating the name of a well-known shade of blue that someone else might want, such as "azure", "cyan", or "ultramarine", or linking the library to a toxic pigment. While browsing Wikipedia, I found the pigment "YInMn blue",footnoteref:[yinmn-blue-wikipedia-article,link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YInMn_Blue[Wikipedia article on YInMn blue]]footnoteref:[yinmn-blue-press-release,link:https://oregonstate.edu/ua/ncs/archives/2015/may/licensing-agreement-reached-brilliant-new-blue-pigment-discovered-happy-accident[Oregon State University press release about YInMn blue]]footnoteref:[yinmn-blue-npr-article,link:http://www.npr.org/2016/07/16/485696248/a-chemist-accidentally-creates-a-new-blue-then-what[National Public Radio article on YInMn blue]] a new blue pigment with a workably unattractive name and an apparent lack of toxicity. The name may be taken as a bacronym for "##y##oung, ##in##efficient ##m##athematics/##n##umbers library".
