Where of course "above" means "below" and "below" means "above". --Dan On Apr 1, 2014, at 1:49 PM, Seb Perez-D <sbprzd+mathfun@gmail.com> wrote:
OK, I decided to acquiesce to Mathematica's ridiculous demands. (Why should you have to apply AccountingForm[] just to get a number in standard decimal format?)
But gripes aside, appended are the numbers N (other than 1237, 1249, 1256, which it seemed to choke on), 1 <= N <= 2000, for which exp(pi*sqrt(N)) is within .01 of an integer. Besides the mysterious number theory explanations for why some are so very close, it's also puzzling why so many more of these are just above an integer than just below one.
