> bah e^(0.5τi)+1=0 nah e^(τi)=1

  Well darn, that looks even nicer.
• pixcavator 16y ago
  It's not as good! You can get it from the original formula easily, but not vice versa.

    You can get both formulas from this one: e^(0.25τ) = i but that doesn't make it a better formula. Or if it did, then the following formula would be infinitely superior to all of the above (and it doesn't directly mention either π or τ): e^(ix) = cos x + i*sin x

      Yes and yes. A formula is better if it reveals more of the math behind it, in a compact form.
