This decade marks the first major strides to a modern computer, and hence the start of the modern era. Fermi's Rome physics research group (informal name I ragazzi di Via Panisperna) develop statistical algorithms based on Comte de Buffon's work, that would later become the foundation of the Monte Carlo method. See also FERMIAC.
The Department of Computer Science shares a building with the Department of Mathematics. In the building, two massive parabolic slides run from the fourth floor to the ground floor. Their shape corresponds to the equation z = y = h x 2 / d 2 {\displaystyle z=y=hx^{2}/d^{2}} and is supposed to represent the "connection of science and art".
