	Euler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07)
		Euler wrote an article on acoustics, which went on to become a classic, in his bid for selection to the post but he was not chosen to go forward to the stage where lots were drawn to make the final decision on who would fill the chair.
		Euler was also helped by two other members of the Academy, W L Krafft and A J Lexell, and the young mathematician N Fuss who was invited to the Academy from Switzerland in 1772.
		Euler was the first to appreciate the importance of introducing uniform analytic methods into mechanics, thus enabling its problems to be solved in a clear and direct way.

	Euler Number
		The Euler Number of a surface is an integer with this properties:
		Therefore, in order to prove that the results of computing the Euler Number for different divisions yield equal results, it is suffice to prove this for the case in which one division is a refinement of the other.
		The fact that the Euler Numbers of the Torus and the Sphere are not equal shows that these objects are not topologically equivalent.

	Euler pseudoprime - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is not possible to produce a definite test of primality based on whether a number is an Euler pseudoprime because there exist absolute Euler pseudoprimes, numbers which are Euler pseudoprimes to every base relatively prime to themselves.
		The absolute Euler pseudoprimes are a subset of the absolute Fermat pseudoprimes, or Carmichael numbers, and the smallest absolute Euler pseudoprime is 1729 = 7·13·19.
		A discussion of numbers of this form can be found at Euler-Jacobi pseudoprime.

	10.9. Euler, Leonard (1707-1783)
		Leonhard Euler was one of top mathematicians of the eighteenth century and the greatest mathematician to come out of Switzerland.
		Euler took up a position at the Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg, Russia, in 1727 and became the professor of mathematics six years later.
		Unfortunately, Euler's philosophical ability was limited and he often blundered to the amusement of all involved.

	LEONHARD EULER (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07)
		Leonhard Euler (1707-1783) was arguably the greatest mathematician of the eighteenth century (His closest competitor for that title is Lagrange) and one of the most prolific of all time; his publication list of 886 papers and books may be exceeded only by Paul Erdös.
		But there is another "Euler's formula" that (to use the modern terminology adopted long after Euler's death) gives the values of the Riemann zeta function at positive even integers in terms of Bernoulli numbers.
		Euler's study of the bridges of Königsberg can be seen as the beginning of combinatorial topology (which is why the Euler characteristic bears his name).

		Because of this, Euler is often portrayed in popular accounts and classroom lectures as a reckless symbol-manipulator, who worked in a number system fraught with nonsense and contradiction, but who through sheer intuitive brilliance somehow came to correct conclusions.
		The first requirement of our rehabilitation of Euler's arguments is that his methods be formulated within a mathematical system in which the properties of infinite and infinitesimal numbers are explained at least as clearly as the properties of the real numbers.
		The real numbers are described informally in the main body of the textbook, but presented more precisely in an appendix by citing the field axioms, the order axioms, the definition of the natural numbers, the root axiom (that principal nth roots exist for positive numbers), and the completeness axiom.

	Biography of Leonhard Euler
		Leonhard Euler, from Basel, Switzerland, was one of the most prolific mathematicians of all time.
		It was once said that "Euler calculated without apparent effort, as men breathe..." Although he was set back by partial blindness in his 20's, and then almost complete blindness in his later life, he was still able to discover some of the most important mathematical works of his time.
		Euler claimed that while holding a baby in his arms, and children playing around his feet, he made some of his best mathematical discoveries.

	Perfect numbers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07)
		It is not known when perfect numbers were first studied and indeed the first studies may go back to the earliest times when numbers first aroused curiosity.
		Perfect numbers were studied by Pythagoras and his followers, more for their mystical properties than for their number theoretic properties.
		Today the usual definition of a perfect number is in terms of its divisors, but early definitions were in terms of the 'aliquot parts' of a number.

	Floating-Point Numbers
		For a negative number, we may set the sign bit of the floating-point word and negate the number to be encoded, leaving only nonnegative numbers to be considered.
		The basic idea of floating point encoding of a binary number is to normalize the number by shifting the bits either left or right until the shifted result lies between 1/2 and 1.
		The normalized number between 1/2 and 1 is called the significand, so called because it holds all the ``significant bits'' of the number.

		"Whoa," we said, "that's no number I've ever seen before." Of course, we really had seen it before, in folk tales and legends and when our big sisters brought home their calculus homework, but this was the first time we'd really seen it in a math class.
		He coined the word Logarithm, which means "number of the ratio", as in the common ratio of a geometric sequence.
		Anyway, e and Pi are both numbers that will pop out of your problems when you least expect it, and I'd say that they do it with about the same frequency.

		In this paper we derive a formula for the Euler numbers of four-dimensional rotating fl holes by the integral of the Euler density on the spacetime manifolds of fl holes.
		Using this formula, we obtain that the Euler numbers of Kerr and Kerr-Newman fl holes are 2.
		We also obtain that the Euler number of the Kerr-Sen metric in the heterotic string theory with one boost angle nonzero is 2, which is in accordance with its topology.

	April 15: Mathematician Leonhard Euler born
		Euler showed early promise in math, a promise that was amply fulfilled.

	Introduction on Bernoulli's numbers
		Perhaps one of the most important result is Euler-Maclaurin summation formula, where Bernoulli's numbers are contained and which allows to accelerate the computation of slow converging series (see the essay on Euler's constant at [9]).
		They also appear in numbers theory (Fermat's theorem) and in many other domains and have caused the creation of a huge literature (see the 2700 and more entries enumerated in [6]).
		According to Louis Saalschültz [17], the term Bernoulli's numbers was used for the first time by Abraham De Moivre (1667-1754) and also by Leonhard Euler (1707-1783) in 1755.

	Imaginary Numbers
		When negative numbers are multiplied, we are given certain rules for the operation: (1) When two positive numbers are multiplied, the result is positive; (2) when two negative numbers are multiplied, the result is also positive; and (3) when a negative and a positive number are multiplied, the result is negative.
		The only number that is neither positive nor negative is zero, and zero multiplied by anything (positive, negative, or zero) is zero [note].
		That there actually are no imaginary numbers now does not mean that they are nothing: They exist conceptually, or intentionally, in representation, which is as much reality as they need before some operation produces real numbers and real results.

	Euler-Pascal/Cube
		The algorithm that generates formulas for power values (that is Worpitzky's Identity of 1883) logically also generates formulas for values that are summations of powers (where Bernoulli numbers come into play) as well as shells or nexus number series and more.
		In order to generate sequences that are Euler Triangle rows (see A008292) or accumulations from Euler Triangle rows, values of Euler/Pascal cube series are defined with the variables of nth power level, kth order of occurrence and zth accumulation level.
		The number of summations from an initial Euler Triangle row is “enumerated” by the value that is z.

		The numbers pi and e can be expressed as an endless continued fraction or as the limit of an infinite series.
		If the number is terminating, convert it to non-terminating by subtracting one from the last digit, and adding an infinite string of 9's to the end.

	Continued Fractions - An introduction
		Since the numbers always reduce, that is, the size of the remaining rectangle left over will always have one side smaller than the starting rectangle, then the process will always stop with a final n-by-1 rectangle.
		If we look at irrational numbers (numbers which cannot be written exactly as a fraction) we will find no pattern in their decimal fractions.
		The numbers that are squared are Fibonacci numbers (starting with 0 and 1 we add the latest two numbers to get the next, giving the series 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55,...).
