Planck's constant is important for physics, but not for mathematics.

It was me, not someone_else. I don’t have a new one yet, so I wanted someone else (LOL) to win.

Yes, it is Euler. Something_else had him too, I think, but he asked one more question.

Eulers identity is probably the most beautiful formula in math. It combines the five most important numbers and the three basic mathematical methods - addition, multiplication and raising to the power - in one equation. Here it is:

e^{i \pi} + 1 = 0\,\!

There's a Bernoulli Number, as well, of course. Wink

Hint: One of the most important numbers in mathematics is named after him.
