Not only is 59 a real number but it's a cool number too!
59 is an irregular prime, a safe prime and the 14th supersingular prime. It is an Eisenstein prime with no imaginary part and real part of the form 3n − 1. Since 15! + 1 is divisible by 59 but 59 is not one more than a multiple of 15, 59 is a Pillai prime. The more maths the better I always say, but that's because I can't afford things... god I'm broke.
