    CORRECTIONS
    - At 07:20 I say 81 when I mean 82. The on-screen number is correct.
    - I accidentally say "log troll" instead of "division troll" at 03:38.
    - At 03:45 I cross out the wrong 7. Whoops. Gives 117 instead of 171. First spotted by Ryan Parker (no relation).
    - I think that's all. Let me know if you spot any more mistakes.

    3 ^ 2 + 4 ^ 2 = 5 ^ 2
    3 ^ 3 + 4 ^ 3 + 5 ^ 3 = 6 ^ 3
    but the pattern then stops there.

    Your method of reducing fractions is a preferred method of my fifth grade students. They find having to use a common factor too much work and love to just random cancel out numbers. They're not usually so concerned about it yielding the correct answer, though. They get very annoyed when I make them actually find the correct answer.

    7:18 Matt says he multiplies 42 by 2 to get 81, when in fact he gets 82 as the video correctly displays.

    I have heard that Count Von Count's propensity for counting things is inspired by (or probably just coincidentally meshes with) an obscure bit of vampire lore where if you throw a handful of rice or what have you on the floor, the vampire will compulsively count the grains, allowing you time to get away. Which doesn't sound far off from some mathematicians, though they'd devise a method to approximate the number of grains of rice.

    Do you want another spooky maths trick?
    I call it the Parker Thelepathy:
    1. Think about any Integer.
    2. Multiply it by a number of digits it has
    3. The resulting number's digits are the digits of number Pi. I mean they are not in a correct order, but still...

  • @L4Vo5

  • @wolfelkan8183
    @wolfelkan8183 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    My favorite is Troll Commutativity. 2 + 4 = 4 + 2, therefore addition is commutative. 2 × 4 = 4 × 2, therefore multiplication is commutative. 2⁴ = 4², therefore exponentiation is... wait a second...

  • @petertaylor4980
    @petertaylor4980 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    By writing the equation for a general vampire matrix multiplication as AB = bA + B we can reduce the brute forcing requirements considerably: given B we can find A with an inverse and a multiplication, so for 3x3 we just need to handle b^9 instead of b^18 cases. E.g. [[2,1,2],[3,1,5],[4,2,5]][[0,0,5],[8,6,1],[6,2,7]] is a vampire.
    The lexicographically earliest (reading A by rows) is [[0, 1, 1], [1, 1, 1], [1, 2, 1]] [[6, 4, 2], [2, 8, 4], [4, 6, 8]]. There are more than 7000 which don't even have any zeroes (a zero in A being kinda cheaty), of which 336 use all of the digits from 1 to 9. The lexicographically earliest of these is [[1, 1, 1], [4, 2, 3], [6, 6, 5]] [[3, 1, 1], [1, 7, 2], [9, 3, 8]].

    There are indeed 3x3 vampire matrices with distinct fangs. For example:
    [[1, 1, 1] [[1, 1, 1] [[11, 11, 11]
    [2, 1, 2] [1, 6, 1] = [21, 16, 21]
    [8, 9, 8]] [9, 4, 9]] [89, 94, 89]]
    I found a few by brute force, and my algorithm doesn't scale up well, so I don't know if there any with 2 digit numbers
