What is your favorite math equation???

There are so many beautiful equations in math, but I'm curious what you think the most beautiful ones are? Euler's formula is often cited, combining 5 special numbers e, pi, i, 1, 0, but my next video is about another equation due to Euler that I think I like even more (channel members can watch now!).

Hey all, update that the company I've been working with on merch is closing down. I started working with Beautiful Equations a couple years ago, and while there are lots of merch companies out there I liked that this one was trying to really focus on promoting mathematics and so I was happy to partner with them. Anyone who ordered merch is getting/already gotten their merch, but there isn't new sales and there will be some dead links in my video description or a while until I get them all removed - thanks for your understanding:)

To anyone who ordered something over the years, thank you! You are amazing:) It was never a significant amount of money (and honestly I did a bad job promoting it, I almost never actually mentioned it in a video) so I'm not in any particular rush to do it again with a new company, but who knows, there might be new math merch in the future:D

Happy Pi day everyone!!! Or, uh, happy half Tau day, if you prefer:D To mark the occasion I'm sharing one of the coolest facts about pi that you can experimentally estimate P simply by dropping a bunch of needles and counting their intersections with regularly spaced lines - cool!

Woah, I was actually a winner!! Check out really so many great math videos and explainers in ‪@3blue1brown‬ 's announcement video of all the winners and runners up. I think the math community on YouTube is really awesome and makes a big difference in building a love and appreciation for mathematics - proud to be a small part of that. My thanks to 3b1b and everyone else involved in the contest:)

For two years now I've been partnering up with Overleaf to make a whole LaTeX playlist on learning to write beautiful math documents using LaTeX. But we've never run an actual promotion - until now. Exclusive to this channel, Overleaf and I are running a 10% discount promo on both Student and Standard Overleaf annual plans. Get the discount ►►► www.overleaf.com/events/exclusive-offer-to-trefor-…. You've got until the end of May to sign up!

My first LaTeX video was actually not sponsored via Overleaf but I happened to use Overleaf in the video because I think it's a great product I've always recommended to my actual students for getting started with LaTeX and imo the free tier has all the basics needed. The promo today get's access to the paid tiers and they have a bunch of quality-of-life superpowers like document history, tracking changes, collaborations and integrations with other services reference managers that can be really helpful too.

Oh, and a new LaTeX video is dropping on Wednesday too: "How to make your LaTeX documents beautiful". See you all there!

Happy Pi day!!! I hope your head is full of Pi and your tummies full of pie. I didn't get around to making a special Pi day video this year, but here is last year's video - it was a fun one!
