The 238th Carnival of Mathematics is now available online at Fractal Kitty, rounding up math blog posts from March 2025. This edition, organized by Aperiodical, features a variety of math art and explores interesting facts about the number 238, including that it is 2 × 7 × 17, the sum of the first 13 primes, and a "triprime." The Mathstodon community contributed fun facts about 238, such as its relation to Uranium-238 and its representation in hexadecimal as "EE."

The carnival includes a variety of blog posts and activities from around the mathematical community. Peter Cameron shared thoughts on Compactness, Memories of CFSG, and defending research against government censorship, while other posts covered topics like polyominoes, a modern presentation of Peano Axioms, and the Monty Hall Problem. Karen Campe continued her visual Go For Geometry Series, and Amédée d’Aboville explored Group Theory With Zoombinis. These diverse topics showcase the breadth of interests and engagement within the math world.

Beyond traditional blog posts, the carnival highlights creative endeavors like Ayliean's #MathArtMarch, which showcased crochet, coding, painting, and other artistic expressions inspired by mathematics. There's also discussion happening on platforms like Mathstodon, with Terence Tao sharing insights on dynamical systems and the complexities of linear versus nonlinear regimes. Pat's Blog delves into geometry, discussing properties of rhombuses and extensions of concurrency theorems, demonstrating the vibrant and varied nature of mathematical discussions and explorations.
