How to write a check to piss off the receiver...

An old joke, and a botched retelling at that.

a. Not e^(2*pi), but e^(i*pi), which evaluates to -1.
b. Add that to the sum of the series, and you get zero. That is, if the series starts at one and not zero, it isn't clear.
c. That leaves 0.002, which would be the check writer's "two cents" if the decimal point were in the right place. But it isn't.
