An anagram is a word or phrase formed by rearranging the letters of a different word or phrase, typically using all the original letters exactly once. [1] For example, the word anagram itself can be rearranged into the phrase "nag a ram"; which is an Easter egg suggestion in Google after searching for the word "anagram". [2]
An animation illustrating the anagram between the Euphorbiaceae genus names Joannesia and Annesijoa Illustration from Adam White's A Popular History of British Crustacea, 1857, showing the crustacean genera Conilera and Rocinela named by Leach using taxonomic anagrams. In the biological nomenclature codes, an anagram can be used to name a new ...
The first such anagram dictionary was The Crossword Anagram Dictionary by R.J. Edwards [1] In the other kind of anagram dictionary, words are categorized into equivalence classes that consist of words with the same number of each kind of letter. Thus words will only appear when other words can be made from the same letters.
An efficient algorithm was proposed by Booth (1980). [2] The algorithm uses a modified preprocessing function from the Knuth–Morris–Pratt string search algorithm.The failure function for the string is computed as normal, but the string is rotated during the computation so some indices must be computed more than once as they wrap around.
The poem "Anagram" from the 1633 edition of George Herbert's The Temple, connecting the words Mary and army. Anagrammatic poetry is poetry with the constrained form that either each line or each verse is an anagram of all other lines or verses in the poem. A poet that specializes in anagrams is an anagrammarian. [1]
242 is the smallest integer to start a run of four consecutive integers with the same number of divisors. [1] [2] 242 is a nontotient since there is no integer with 242 coprimes below it. 242 is a palindrome. 242 is the number of parallelogram polyominoes with 8 cells. [3] 242 is the difference between 355 and 113, two numbers used in an ...
In mathematics, the factorial of a non-negative integer, denoted by !, is the product of all positive integers less than or equal to . The factorial of also equals the product of with the next smaller factorial: ! = () = ()! For example, ! =! = =
Plutonium-242 (242 Pu or Pu-242) is the second longest-lived isotope of plutonium, with a half-life of 375,000 years. The half-life of 242 Pu is about 15 times that of 239 Pu; so it is one-fifteenth as radioactive, and not one of the larger contributors to nuclear waste radioactivity.
