They are generalizations of the concepts of betrothed numbers and quasiperfect numbers. The first quasi-sociable sequences, or quasi-sociable chains, were discovered by Mitchell Dickerman in 1997: 1215571544 = 2^3*11*13813313; 1270824975 = 3^2*5^2*7*19*42467; 1467511664 = 2^4*19*599*8059; 1530808335 = 3^3*5*7*1619903; 1579407344 = 2^4*31^2*59*1741
A mathematical constant is a key number whose value is fixed by an unambiguous definition, often referred to by a symbol (e.g., an alphabet letter), or by mathematicians' names to facilitate using it across multiple mathematical problems. [1]
Such a number is algebraic and can be expressed as the sum of a rational number and the square root of a rational number. Constructible number: A number representing a length that can be constructed using a compass and straightedge. Constructible numbers form a subfield of the field of algebraic numbers, and include the quadratic surds.
The greedy algorithm for Egyptian fractions finds a solution in three or fewer terms whenever is not 1 or 17 mod 24, and the 17 mod 24 case is covered by the 2 mod 3 relation, so the only values of for which these two methods do not find expansions in three or fewer terms are those congruent to 1 mod 24.
Variables of BigNumber type can be used, or regular numbers can be converted to big numbers using conversion operator # (e.g., #2.3^2000.1). SmartXML big numbers can have up to 100,000,000 decimal digits and up to 100,000,000 whole digits.
In decimal numbers greater than 1 (such as 3.75), the fractional part of the number is expressed by the digits to the right of the separator (with a value of 0.75 in this case). 3.75 can be written either as an improper fraction, 375 / 100 , or as a mixed number, 3 + 75 / 100 .
The period of the sequence, or order of the set of sociable numbers, is the number of numbers in this cycle. If the period of the sequence is 1, the number is a sociable number of order 1, or a perfect number—for example, the proper divisors of 6 are 1, 2, and 3, whose sum is again 6.
For the leading zero, subtract 1 from the neighbor. For rules 9, 8, 4, and 3 only the first digit is subtracted from 10. After that each digit is subtracted from nine instead. Example: 2,130 × 9 = 19,170 Working from right to left: (10 − 0) + 0 = 10. Write 0, carry 1. (9 − 3) + 0 + 1 (carried) = 7. Write 7. (9 − 1) + 3 = 11. Write 1 ...
