The number 73 is "The best number". So Sheldon Cooper from the "The Big Bang Theory" says. but why?
73 is the 21st prime number, and its mirror 37 is the 12th prime number, while 21 is 7 times 3.
Mathematicians approve this is the only number that holds this properties and that is why it has got its' name "Sheldon Prime" as a homage.
Bonus, Sheldon's quotes:
Sheldon: "The best number is 73. Why? 73 is the 21st prime number. Its mirror, 37, is the 12th and its mirror, 21, is the product of multiplying 7 and 3."'"
Leonard: "We get it, 73 is the Chuck Norris of numbers!"
Sheldon: "Chuck Norris wishes. In binary 73 is a palindrome, 1001001, which backwards is 1001001. All Chuck Norris backwards gets you is Sirron Kcuhc!"
