i like the small numerical factoid about 613 discovered by experimental mathematician jason earls, 613 is prime, move 6 to the back to get triangular number 136, then move 1 to the back to get the square 361 - three numbers in one, nerdy and cool. this might be in pickover's math book. someone tell me if it is.
I am sure this woman is already married and perhaps with children, but if she was not married, I would marry her in a heartbeat. She is so, so sexy!!!!! It was love at first sight for me, anyway.
Because of tradition in mathematics. Euler's identity is by convention expressed in canonical form: the standard way of presenting a mathematical object. Mathematicians prefer to write their equations with all terms on the left side, leaving the right side with a zero. That's the canon. The canonical form also displays three fundamental operations (addition, multiplication and exponentiation) as well as the two most important numbers: 0 and 1. The -1 is simply not "elegant".
Your point is well taken. Compactness is a perfectly valid criterion. And -1 is just as good a number as 1 itself. Elegance, after all, is in the eye of the beholder.
Math totally rocks! That looks like a good book. When I joined the sciam book club,I got the whole series of books on the numbers that changed the world (0, π, e, i, golden ratio, Chaitin's Ω --- okay, that last one hasn't changed the world yet and it wasn't actually part of the set, but I LOVE that number).
WHATS WITH THE BARBIE THAT LOOKS LIKE YOU.

oogrooq is correct, but still: Nerd Porn, an idea whose time has come.

e ∧ (iπ) + 1 = 0
Yes!

Why not just say e^(iiπ) = -1?

Thanks for your answer. I disagree though, I find = -1 more elegant (simply because it is more compact). Then again, I'm not a mathematician. :-)
