The God Equation: Euler's Formula

[matthewshubin]

As you probably know Euler's formula is e^{ix}=\cos x+i\sin x,}
and when x=pi , Euler's formula evaluates to e^{i*pi }+1=0, meaning that only three rigorously proven transcendental numbers in existence, when brought together all seem to work out nicely to -1. Given that Euler's formula is used to model electromagnetic waves, and your recent work on Fourier analysis, perhaps there is some way we can create a coding challenge out of all this wonderfulness. Thank you!!!!

You are such an inspiration and a wonderful teacher.
Thank you.

Maybe a recursive(?) visualization of how the limit approaches -1?

[matthewshubin]

I think that’s a great idea. can you think of a resource for getting the ball rolling on that recursive function ?

I’m familiar with recursive fractal trees etc

Thanks

Matthew
