You have to produce a paper in partnership with Paul Erdos to get an Erdos number of 1. If you produce a paper in partnership with someone who already has an Erdos Number, you get one more than your co-author(s).
It is rumoured that Baseball legend Hank Aaron has an Erdos number of 1 since he and Erdos both signed the baseball with which Aaron broke Babe Ruth's career home run record of 714 !
What else can I help you with?
How do you get an Erdos number?
Produce a maths paper in association with either Erdos himself or someone who already has an Erdos number.
What is your Erdos number and how did you come to know about it?
My Erdos number is 4. I found out about it through academic collaborations and research connections with other mathematicians who have lower Erdos numbers.
Does the Erdos Number follow the Benford Law?
No, it does not. The Benford Law requires the numbers to span several orders of magnitude, Erdos numbers have a very small range.
How do you describe paul erdos as a son on N is a number?

Who was the best mathmatician?
This is a very subjective question, especially considering that mathematics has several fields that go into such detail that specialists from one field can do little on advanced topics in a different field. However, some notable mathematicians include Pythagoras, Euler, and Erdos. (In fact, Erdos was a mathematician of such great fame that there is something called an Erdos number that people made up to keep track of how close they are to writing a paper with Erdos himself.)

What does it mean to have a defined erdos bacon number?
An Erdős number is a mathematician's measure of "proximity" to the prolific mathematician Paul Erdős. Erdős is assigned the number 0 and all his coauthors have a number 1. People who have not written papers with Erdős, but have written with one of his coauthors have Erdős number 2, and so on. A Bacon number measures an actor's proximity to Kevin Bacon, much like an Erdős number. Kevin Bacon has Bacon number 0 and all his costars have Bacon number 1. An actor who has not appeared in a movie with Kevin Bacon, but has starred alongside one of Bacon's costars will have Bacon number 2, and so on. An Erdős-Bacon number is a combination of the two. It is defined to be the sum of a person's Erdős number and Bacon number. Since it crosses disciplines between mathematics and acting, most people have infinite (or undefined) Erdős-Bacon numbers. Slightly better terminology to saying a person has a "defined Erdos-Bacon number" would be to say that they have a "finite Erdos-Bacon number."
