Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Insane. Can anybody explain why this method turns addition into multiplication?

At 20:53, look at the ratio of each number with the one below it :)
!RemindMe 2 months, watch this again
Is this logarithmic/exponential transformation by Pascal triangle between addition and multiplication - something well known and trivial? Or is it something new? Sounds interesting!
I am stupid. What's the Moessner's summation method? When generating the cubes we're skipping every third number in the first row, then every second number in the second row. But in the factorial generation we are skipping numbers in the same order in every row.
