Default Special Numbers

You may like to make a note of these special numbers:

1
153
370
371
407

They are special because when you take cubes of each digits and add them
up you get the actual number. for example:

4^3 + 0^3 + 7^3 = 407

A Mathematician by the name of Armstrong found these numbers. These
numbers are now called: "Narcissistic Numbers"

G. H. Hardy was one of last century's finest mathematical thinkers,
renowned among his contemporaries as a 'real mathematician ... the
purest of the pure'. He was also, as C. P. Snow recounts in his
Foreword, 'unorthodox, eccentric, radical, ready to talk about
anything'. This 'apology', written in 1940, offers a brilliant and
engaging account of mathematics as very much more than a science; when
it was first published, Graham Greene hailed it alongside Henry
James's notebooks as 'the best account of what it was like to be a
creative artist'. C. P. Snow's Foreword gives sympathetic and witty
insights into Hardy's life, with its rich store of anecdotes
concerning his collaboration with the brilliant Indian mathematician
Ramanujan, his idiosyncrasies, and his passion for cricket. This is a
unique account of the fascination of mathematics and of one of its
most compelling exponents in modern times.
