2/ Actually I was once invited to lecture in the House of Commons (UK). The receptionists wd not let me in without a tie (even though I was wearing a suit). I told them I was Iranian & ties were taboo. They looked up the rules allowing "traditional" clothes & let me in. — PolitiTweet.org

@integralsbot @infseriesbot 2- We have a brilliant solution by @arthurzqx [in thread below] via Dirichlet kernels. I am stuck, but close, using special functions, but it pays to be stubborn here. A small trick is needed for N->infinity and a transformation T->T/2 since tan(.) has half the periodicity of f. https://t.co/OLM39cCyoj — PolitiTweet.org

3/ I made sure to confuse them by also telling them I was Lebanese, but to these receptionists anything East of France was the same thing, could all be subsumed under the designation "Iran". — PolitiTweet.org
