Given that it was just a conjecture, why is it worth noting? Getting back to the main topic, it wasn't only conjectured, but also proven.

- contravariant 5y agoIt's noteworthy because it's an a conjecture by Euler and because it's an example of hasty generalization. Either Euler jumped to conclusions almost laughably quickly or something interesting happens once n >= 10.
