Arithmetic Fact of the Day: It has been proven that every positive integer greater than 2 is the sum of 3 palindromic integers (Mathematics of Computation, Vol. 87 No. 314., pp 3023-3055)
For example:
3=1+1+1
4=1+1+2
23=5+7+11
366=33+121+212
367=2+22+343
99,084=21312+5445+72327

You walk into a Gothic cathedral thinking it’s just another old church.

But what if I told you, it was once the most advanced structures ever built?

A place where light was engineered, sound was weaponized, and stone was used to tell stories.

Let me show you. 🧵👇
