I am known for such beauties as forgetting to change the sign in a calculation, and getting a negative time value, And due to forgetting to subtracting a number the area being imaginary.

In the song The Twelve days of Christmas, your true love gives you a bunch of gifts throughout the twelve days. Assuming that each day they give you a new gift (that being the partridge in the first day is not the partridge in the second day), you will receive a total of

12 Partridges in pear trees

22 Turtle doves

30 French hens

36 Calling birds

40 ~Golden Ringss~

42 Geese a laying

42 Swans a swimming

40 Maids a milking

36 Ladies dancing

30 Lords a leaping

22 Pipers piping

12 Drummers drumming

That is a total of 364 gifts. That is a lot of gifts.

I just realized that these numbers also have a nice symmetry to them.

Edit: Mersenne Prime should be (2^n) -1, not 2^(n-1)

The maths history comic is taking some time, so until then enjoy some random maths fun.
