Young diagram
A Young diagram is a visual way to represent a mathematical concept called partitions, which are ways to break down a number into smaller parts. Imagine stacking square blocks into rows, with each row no longer than the one above it. The diagram uses these stacked rows to show how a number can be split into parts, with the size of each row indicating the value of each part. Young diagrams are useful in areas like algebra and representation theory to study symmetrical structures and organize complex data visually.
