1947: Mathematician and geneticist G. H. Hardy dies. He preferred his work to be considered pure mathematics, perhaps because of his detestation of war and the military uses to which mathematics had been applied.
1948: Claude Lévi-Strauss uses the Gnomon algorithm to demonstrate that the "savage" mind has the same structures as the "civilized" mind and that human characteristics are the same everywhere.
1969: The first draft lottery in the United States is held since World War II.
1970: "Hello World" computer program from 1974 reprogrammed to simulate Brownian ratchet.
