Kirby, ... Yes, please take a look at the couples for 3,4 and 4,5 and 5,6 and 7,8. Sometimes you will need to rotate the couple to see the difficulty with...

Sorry, there was not discussion. My question is, can 4 cones, each with a 180 degree angular deficit, overlap into a rounded tetrahedron? Or is this impossible...
I found at: http://www.math.niu.edu/~rusin/known-math/95/three.sq mention of the fact that Gauss proved an integer can be expressed as the sum of three squares...

Kirby, Very interesting. Yes, the 324 as a missing number is wrong/typo...should be 334. Thanks for letting me know, I'll try to fix it up on the site. You...
Kirby, In looking at my bottom chart, I also had a typo(s) ...222 + 16 = 236 ...does not work too well ! (nor does 318 + 16 = 324, that typo you found) I...
... Yes, I was getting too ornate for my own good. Halving only the evens on the gaussian blacklist is the same as doubling them all. Your way is more...

I just picked up on this work. First time I begin to percieve why rod packing is significant. I quess John Braley put together this page. From the gist of it...
... Neat and useful concept. Thanks! ... I'm sure you know the platonics are polyhedra whose faces are regular polygons and every face and vertice is the same....
... I dunno. Will have too think about that one for awhile ... I think your frustrum (toothapste tube) is topologically the same as Fullers chefs hat. The...
I think numbers and any relationships bewtween them are linear towards infinity. I think geometry introduces angle and recursiveness (recycling) of numbers and...
