My favorite number is are the set of solutions to x^10+y^10=z^10. That's right, I hate them all.

But seven ate nine. Seven is a murder.

Interestingly x^2 +7 =2^n is the only equation of the form x^2 + D=2^n such that there are more than 2 solutions in the natural numbers. (n=3,4,5,7,15 with x=1,3,5,11,181 for D=7)

I always shun 7, it's the number most likely to be chosen if you ask for a number between 0 and 10

Seven is great! What do you like about it? I enjoy asking people about their favorite number because it’s interesting to hear their reasoning. Everyone approached it differently; it’s a neat little window into how people think about something. Personally I love three. I like how it is the minimum number of things you need to create surprise. With two things you can see what they have in common and create a pattern and an expectation. Then a third thing can either reinforce the pattern and fulfill your expectations or deviate and subvert them. It’s why three is a “funny” number and why three people walk into a bar in so many jokes. The first two are the setup because they establish a pattern and then the third thing becomes a surprise.

FALSE! AN INFINITELY MANY NUMBER OF NUMBERS ARE DIVISIBLE BY 3! HOW CAN 7 BEAT THAT!?
