Do autistic people actually enjoy mathematics?
To me autism sounds incompatible with mathematics. One of the main characterizing traits of autism is the love of repetitiveness, doing the same thing over and over again by a well-defined algorithm. But in maths it's basically constant novelty, in textbooks if anything is like what was written before it's dismissed as trivial. Based on this observation it would seem that autistics wouldn't enjoy mathematics a lot. So what's the deal?
