2 Esdras has a chapter 14, verse 25: "And come hither, and I shall light a candle of understanding in thine heart, which shall not be put out, till the things be performed which thou shalt begin to write."

Thus: light a candle

lim x->0 x/tanx
Ca by weight
Fifth root ~= 1.24573 (nearest whole integer)
0,1,1,2,3,5
----
10111 in binary is 23 in decimal
lim x->0 x/tanx (l'hopital's rule) = 1/(d/dx tanx) = 1/(sec^2(0)) = 1/1 = 1
Ca by weight = Atomic weight: 20.078 (4) g
fifth root ~= 1.24573 = 3
0,1,1,2,3,5 next is 8 (0+1=1, 1+1=2, 2+1=3, etc.)
