The Euler numbers and their last digits
The Euler numbers are the coefficients En in the expansion(1)Since sec x is an even function and tan x an odd one, this decouples into(2)and(3)where all three series converge if and E2n + 1 are sometimes called the secant numbers (or secant coefficients) and tangent numbers (or tangent coefficients) respectively.
