Euler's identity wrong?

I haven't done the mental gymnastics to check if your form is equavlent, but I am distracted by normally seeing the formula you quote in every single example as:

e^(i.pi) = -1

or

(e^(i^pi)) +1 = 0

Putting the +1 in the exponent is not what I expect!

Whoops! That was incorrect indeed. A very unfortunate typo because it happens to be a favourite equation of many people including me.

Thank you for reporting this. This has been fixed now in commit 3b28bfd.

You're very welcome!

I arrived via HN, BTW.
