About

Apparently, this user prefers to keep an air of mystery about him, and he likes to use proper grammar.

"Mathematics is the queen of the sciences and number theory is the queen of mathematics. [Die Mathematik ist die Königin der Wissenschaften und die Zahlentheorie ist die Königin der Mathematik.]" -- attributed to Gauss

"It is not incumbent upon you to finish the task, but neither are you free to absolve yourself from it. " -- Pirkei Avot
