The final digit of a triangular number is 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, or 8, and thus such numbers never end in 2, 4, 7, or 9. A final 3 must be preceded by a 0 or 5; a final 8 must be preceded by a 2 or 7. In base 10, the digital root of a nonzero triangular number is always 1, 3, 6, or 9. Hence, every triangular number is either divisible by three or has a ...

Repeating this process produces the higher-order binomial coefficients, which in this way can be thought of as generalized triangular numbers, and which give the first part of Harriot's title. [3] Harriot's results were only improved 50 years later by Isaac Newton, and prefigure Newton's use of Newton polynomials for interpolation. [1] [4] As ...
a number represented as a discrete r-dimensional regular geometric pattern of r-dimensional balls such as a polygonal number (for r = 2) or a polyhedral number (for r = 3). a member of the subset of the sets above containing only triangular numbers, pyramidal numbers , and their analogs in other dimensions.
[2] As a triangular number, 153 is the sum of the first 17 integers, and is also the sum of the first five positive factorials: ! +! +! +! +!. [1] The number 153 is also a hexagonal number, and a truncated triangle number, meaning that 1, 15, and 153 are all triangle numbers.
Each centered triangular number has a remainder of 1 when divided by 3, and the quotient (if positive) is the previous regular triangular number. Each centered triangular number from 10 onwards is the sum of three consecutive regular triangular numbers. For n > 2, the sum of the first n centered triangular numbers is the magic constant for an n ...
The number of domino tilings of a 4×4 checkerboard is 36. [10] Since it is possible to find sequences of 36 consecutive integers such that each inner member shares a factor with either the first or the last member, 36 is an ErdÅ‘s–Woods number. [11] The sum of the integers from 1 to 36 is 666 (see number of the beast). 36 is also a ...
Ternary: The base-three numeral system with 0, 1, and 2 as digits. Quaternary: The base-four numeral system with 0, 1, 2, and 3 as digits. Hexadecimal: Base 16, widely used by computer system designers and programmers, as it provides a more human-friendly representation of binary-coded values.
