e ^ іπ = -1
Eighteenth-century mathematician Euler wrote this formula and said, 'Therefore, God must exist.'
It is the most important and the most beautiful formula in human history.
For those who confront this formula, it would be such pain to read or to understand the formula. But don't be ashamed. It is natural. Dozens of historical mathematician-Ferro, Tartaglia, Cardano, Fjord, Bombelli, Descartes, Willis, Kotz, Euler, etc.- had been stuck to this matter more than 300 years, no wonder it is impossible to understand in a glance.
This simple formula lighted up the progress of technology and science, the very essence of modern civilization.
Euler, who first discovered this formula in 1748, did not have nor could imagine a smartphone we are using today, however, this formula he discovered brought quantum mechanics and quantum field theory to the light. Were it not for quantum mechanics, semiconductors could not exist, and without semiconductor technology, a smartphone could not exist.
So to speak, modern civilization, state of the art technology and science we now possess, owes to the formula, "e ^ іπ = -1".
