Where 161,803 fits
Why 161,803 is special
It is the most irrational number there is, in a precise sense: its continued fraction is all ones, which makes it the hardest of all numbers to approximate with fractions. That is why sunflower seeds and pine cones use it — a turn of φ between successive seeds never repeats, so nothing lands on top of anything else.
