Abstract: `Fermat's Last Theorem for the exponent 3 has received numerous proofs, the most common of which being either in Euler's or in Gauss' style. This latter works entirely in the ring of integers of the quadratic field generated by the square root of -3. A proof in Euler's style is based on a central lemma related to properties of the quadratic form x^2 + 3y^2, then it proceeds by descent by considering Two main cases. In the present version, the central lemma receives a short proof and the classical proof by descent in Two main cases boils down to a One-case proof.
