Calculate. Create. Chronicle.
Fourty-Three43 is a unified open-source computational, aesthetic, and historical ecosystem revolving around the prime number 43 and the Swahili linguistic heritage of Nne Tatu (Four Three).
Here are some of the projects I'm currently working on or have contributed to:
-
43Math: A Python library for performing mathematical operations and calculations related to the number 43.
-
FortyThreeArt: A collection of ASCII art and visual representations inspired by the number 43.
-
The 43 Chronicles: A blog where I share interesting facts, stories, and trivia about the number 43.

In a world of numbers, one stands tall,
With digits four and three, its call.
A prime it is, unique and true,
Oh, number 43, we admire you!
Solve Me.
I am a number, small yet grand,
A prime so special, I proudly stand.
Multiply me by one, the result you see,
Add me to myself, 86 is the key.
What am I? Can you define?
A number that's divine, it's [??]!
Solve Me Too.
I have a riddle, here's a clue,
With tongues aplenty, but no words ensue.
43 tongues I claim, yet silent is my fame,
Flickering and dancing, can you guess my name?
