This is a friendly reminder that
((1+𝑥)ʸ+(1+𝑥+𝑥²)ʸ)ˣ⋅((1+𝑥³)ˣ+(1+𝑥²+𝑥⁴)ˣ)ʸ=((1+𝑥)ˣ+(1+𝑥+𝑥²)ˣ)ʸ⋅((1+𝑥³)ʸ+(1+𝑥²+𝑥⁴)ʸ)ˣ for all natural numbers \(x\) and \(y\), but this formula is impossible to obtain by using only those arithmetic laws taught in high school. Credit for this goes to Alex Wilkie, who found this in the 1980s.
