801 (number) explained

801 (eight hundred [and] one) is the natural number following 800 and preceding 802.

801 is the sum of a square and positive cube in more than one way, and a sum of distinct positive cubes in more than one way:^{[1] [2]}

801 = 17 ^{2} + 8 ^{3} = 26 ^{2} + 5 ^{3} = 1 ^{3} + 2 ^{3} + 4 ^{3} + 6 ^{3} + 8 ^{3} = 2 ^{3} + 4 ^{3} + 9 ^{3.}

In the gematria of 2nd century bishop Irenaeus, 801 stands for both the Greek word for a dove, and for Alpha and Omega, and therefore represents God in two ways.^[3]
