Favorite numbers?
« on: August 21, 2010, 01:42:01 PM »
In an interview I've read today a mathematician said that every mathematician has a favorite number.

So I'm going to ask you what your favorite number is if you have one?
And are you or have you been into mathematics?

I myself studied mathematics but dropped out after the first year.
My favorite number is not hidden in this picture:

People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.
