Forgotten Number
I have forgotten the number of the combination of the lock on my
briefcase. I did have a method for remembering it...
It went as follows:
The number is equal to the sum of the cubes of its own digits.
It is a three digit number less than 500
It is the sum of consecutive factorials.
It is a triangle number.
