Significance of numbers.

Not to be confused with the concept of "significant figures," this page lists the significance of numbers 0 through 1000. See!  2 is the only even prime." Hear! " 24 is the largest number divisible by all numbers less than its square root." Thrill! " 3367 is the smallest number which can be written as the difference of 2 cubes in 3 ways." Whoa!
