1 My Favorite Theorem By Josh Zimmer

2 Leonhard Euler My Favorite Mathematician
Creator of My Favorite Theorem Fascinated by prime numbers Created 2 important theorems regarding prime number

3 First f(n) = n2 + n + 41 f(n) = n2 + n + k, (k = prime)
Works for all numbers n < 40 Still produces >10 million primes 3-1 f(n) = n2 + n + k, (k = prime) Works for all number to k-2

4 Second π(n) = n/(ln(n-1))
Generates the number of primes < the number n Created in 1792, when 15 years old
