  2. Dudeney number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dudeney_number

    Sociable Dudeney numbers and amicable Dudeney numbers are the powers of their respective roots. The number of iterations i {\displaystyle i} needed for F p , b i ( n ) {\displaystyle F_{p,b}^{i}(n)} to reach a fixed point is the Dudeney function's persistence of n {\displaystyle n} , and undefined if it never reaches a fixed point.

  3. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_(mathematics)

    The even numbers form an ideal in the ring of integers, [13] but the odd numbers do not—this is clear from the fact that the identity element for addition, zero, is an element of the even numbers only. An integer is even if it is congruent to 0 modulo this ideal, in other words if it is congruent to 0 modulo 2, and odd if it is congruent to 1 ...

  4. Singly and doubly even - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singly_and_doubly_even

    A singly even number can be divided by 2 only once; it is even but its quotient by 2 is odd. A doubly even number is an integer that is divisible more than once by 2; it is even and its quotient by 2 is also even. The separate consideration of oddly and evenly even numbers is useful in many parts of mathematics, especially in number theory ...

    even and odd functions, a function is even if f(−x) = f(x) for all x; even and odd permutations, a permutation of a finite set is even if it is composed of an even number of transpositions; Singly even number, an integer divisible by 2 but not divisible by 4; Even code, if the Hamming weight of all of a binary code's codewords is even

  6. Goldbach's conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldbach's_conjecture

    Thus if n is a large even integer and m is a number between 3 and ⁠ n / 2 ⁠, then one might expect the probability of m and n − m simultaneously being prime to be ⁠ 1 / ln m ln(n − m) ⁠. If one pursues this heuristic, one might expect the total number of ways to write a large even integer n as the sum of two odd primes to be roughly

  7. Amicable numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amicable_numbers

    where n > 1 is an integer and p, q, r are prime numbers, then 2 n × p × q and 2 n × r are a pair of amicable numbers. This formula gives the pairs (220, 284) for n = 2, (17296, 18416) for n = 4, and (9363584, 9437056) for n = 7, but no other such pairs are known. Numbers of the form 3 × 2 n − 1 are known as Thabit numbers.

    Also simply application or app. Computer software designed to perform a group of coordinated functions, tasks, or activities for the benefit of the user. Common examples of applications include word processors, spreadsheets, accounting applications, web browsers, media players, aeronautical flight simulators, console games, and photo editors. This contrasts with system software, which is ...

  9. Read–eval–print loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Read–eval–print_loop

    The read–eval–print loop involves the programmer more frequently than the classic edit–compile–run–debug cycle. Because the print function outputs in the same textual format that the read function uses for input, most results are printed in a form that could be copied and pasted back into the REPL. However, it is sometimes necessary ...
