e^ix = cos x + i sin x

=>

i^i = e^-(pi/2) = 0.207...

First y, then z. All this math talk is making me hungry.

Don't forget about "x."
z=xx or z=xy. Sometimes z=xxy, z=xyy, or even a few other things, but z never=yy. I suspect yy is sometimes achieved while on SP, but z=xx or z=xy would be more twisted....and more impressive.

More mind-blowing as

e^(pi*i) = -1
