This reminds us of Schrodinger. So, S + C + H + R + O + D + I + N + G + E + R = 19 + 3 + 8 + 18 + 15 + 4 + 9 + 14 + 7 + 5 + 18 = 120 S + C + H + R + O + D + I + N + G + E + R = 19 + 3 + 8 + 18 + 15 + 4 + 9 + 14 + 7 + 5 + 18 = 120 .

I thought of Grandi's series

The creator of this number is Guido Grandi . Sum of the letters give 109 \boxed{109}

I too thought of him , I tried Guido 's sum, and Grandi 's. And since , it is binary (1 or 0), i even tried boole

x 2 − x = 0 { x }^{ 2 }-x=0
