A number that has the same number of digits as the number of digits in its prime factorization, including exponents but excluding exponents equal to 1. A046758 Extravagant numbers
The combinations are represented as strictly decreasing sequences c k > ... > c 2 > c 1 ≥ 0 where each c i corresponds to the index of a chosen element in a given k-combination. Distinct numbers correspond to distinct k-combinations, and produce them in lexicographic order. The numbers less than () correspond to all k-combinations of {0, 1 ...
Note that the ancient Sanskrit sages discovered many years before Fibonacci that the number of compositions of any natural number n as the sum of 1's and 2's is the nth Fibonacci number! Note that these are not general compositions as defined above because the numbers are restricted to 1's and 2's only. 1=1 (1) 2=1+1=2 (2) 3=1+1+1=1+2=2+1 (3)
Imaginary numbers: Numbers that equal the product of a real number and the imaginary unit , where =. The number 0 is both real and imaginary. The number 0 is both real and imaginary. Complex numbers ( C {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} } ): Includes real numbers, imaginary numbers, and sums and differences of real and imaginary numbers.
Meanwhile, every number larger than 1 will be larger than any decimal of the form 0.999...9 for any finite number of nines. Therefore, 0.999... cannot be identified with any number larger than 1, either. Because 0.999... cannot be bigger than 1 or smaller than 1, it must equal 1 if it is to be any real number at all.

A list of articles about numbers (not about numerals). Topics include powers of ten, notable integers, prime and cardinal numbers, and the myriad system.
Pursuing this type of analysis more carefully, G. H. Hardy and John Edensor Littlewood in 1923 conjectured (as part of their Hardy–Littlewood prime tuple conjecture) that for any fixed c ≥ 2, the number of representations of a large integer n as the sum of c primes n = p 1 + ⋯ + p c with p 1 ≤ ⋯ ≤ p c should be asymptotically equal to
By contrast the encodings considered here choose the first number from a set of n values, the next number from a fixed set of n − 1 values, and so forth decreasing the number of possibilities until the last number for which only a single fixed value is allowed; every sequence of numbers chosen from these sets encodes a single permutation.
