I like Fermat's Last Theorem, as well as the Trapezoid Rule

-∞(√(x²+y²+z²)e-(x²+y²+z²)))dxdydz =2ㅠ

The reason why is very fun to figure out, but should be rather obvious to some people ;)

I didn't even know there was a triple-integral character O.O

Oh, and vertical integration (for APUSH nerds):


f(x)
dx

1+2+3+4...=-1/12

Remind me again how this can be even remotely possible?  There seems to be no way to get that to work O.O
It seems that you have forgotten that when numbers exceed 32,767 they return to -32,768, therefore allowing a sequence of 1+2+3+4.... to be less than 1. ;)

List of stuff I need to do before September:
1. Finish the Emulator of the Casio Prizm (in active development)
2. Finish the the SH3 asm IDE/assembler/linker program (in active development)
3. Create a partial Java virtual machine  for the Prizm (not started)
4. Create Axe for the Prizm with an Axe legacy mode (in planning phase)
5. Develop a large set of C and asm libraries for the Prizm (some progress)
6. Create an emulator of the 83+ for the Prizm (not started)
7. Create a well polished game that showcases the ability of the Casio Prizm (not started)

Well, it's the same basic idea as those proofs that show 0=1: when you deal with infinite numbers in the wrong way, weird things happen :D

I like the fact that from that you can seemingly prove infinity equals negative one half

1+1=1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+... is an infinity of ones added together so it equals 1*infinity
1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+...=-1/2 divide both sides by one and you get infinity equals -1/2

I love how Euler's identity includes all the principal mathematical constants in the same formula.

Spoiler For funny life mathematics:
1. ROMANCE MATHEMATICS
Smart man + smart woman = romance
Smart man + dumb woman = affair
Dumb man + smart woman = marriage
Dumb man + dumb woman = pregnancy
2. OFFICE ARITHMETIC
Smart boss + smart employee = profit
Smart boss + dumb employee = production
Dumb boss + smart employee = promotion
Dumb boss + dumb employee = overtime
3. SHOPPING MATH
A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need.
4. GENERAL EQUATIONS & STATISTICS
A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.
5. HAPPINESS
To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little.
To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.
6. LONGEVITY
Married men live longer than single men do, but married men are a lot more willing to die.
7. PROPENSITY TO CHANGE
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, and she does.
8. DISCUSSION TECHNIQUE
A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

Girls = Time * Money (Girls are a combination of time and money)
Time = Money (Time is money)
Girls = Money squared (So, girls are money squared)
Money = sqrt(Evil) (Money is also the root of all evil)
Girls = sqrt(Evil) squared (So, girls are the root of all evil squared)
Girls = Evil (Thus, girls are evil)

Strangely enough I made a program on calc and computer that use this formula but I never got it to work. :(

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...

I don't know who discovered this equation, but I call it the "mosquito curve" and I found it by accident.  (This is in polar graphing)

r = sin(cos(tan(theta)))

If I remember correctly, k is prime iff there exists a Diophantine solution on the other variables. (aka: practically, this formula is "computationally useless" :P) You'd need to solve for the other 25 or so integer variables such that the inequality holds; not an easy task :P
