- How many numerical analysts does it take to change a light bulb? 3.9967 (after six iterations).
- How many mathematical logicians does it take to change a light bulb? None. They can't do it, but they can easily prove that it can be done.
- How many classical geometers does it take to change a light bulb? None. You can't do it with a straight edge and a compass.
- How many math analysts does it take to change a light bulb? Three. One to prove existence, one to prove uniqueness and one to derive a nonconstructive algorithm to do it.

- How many math students does it take to change a light bulb? Ten. One to do it and nine to watch.
- How many topologists does it take to change a light bulb? Just one. But what will you do with the doughnut?
- How many professors does it take change a light bulb? One. With eight research students, two programmers, three post-docs and a secretary to help him.
- How many university lecturers does it take to change a light bulb? Four. One to do it and three to co-author the paper.
