It has been my school number before. Also,I just like the sound when people say it. Why is it my favorite number?

 Seventeen is the 7th prime number.prime number  17 is odd  17 is the only positive Genocchi number that is primeGenocchi number  17 is known as the Feller number, after the famous mathematician William Feller who taught at Princeton University for many years. Feller would say, when discussing an unsolved mathematical problem, that if it could be proved for the case n = 17 then it could be proved for all positive integers n. He would also say in lectures, "Let's try this for an arbitrary value of n, say n = 17." [3]William FellerPrinceton University [3] Mathematical facts!
