    B'. (6:1–28) – Daniel in the lions' den; A'. (7:1–28) – A vision of four world kingdoms replaced by a fifth; Daniel 1 serves as an introduction to the book, showing how God continues to move throughout history when men seem to have failed (i.e., how God stands for his people when they are in a foreign land and subject to an alien power ...

  3. Palmoni - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmoni

    The name Palmoni (Hebrew: פלמוני, romanized: Palmōnî) appears in the original Hebrew in the biblical book of Daniel. [1] The still widely used King James Version of 1611 refers to Palmoni indirectly as "that certain saint" – "or," as a marginal note from the translators says, "the numberer of secrets, or, the wonderful numberer: Heb. Palmoni."

  4. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    Equivalently, ⁠ 2n1 / 3 ⁠ ≡ 1 (mod 2) if and only if n2 (mod 3). Conjecturally, this inverse relation forms a tree except for a 12 loop (the inverse of the 12 loop of the function f(n) revised as indicated above). Alternatively, replace the 3n + 1 with ⁠ n ′ / H(n ′) ⁠ where n ′ = 3n + 1 and H(n ′) is the ...

  5. Proof of Bertrand's postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_Bertrand's_postulate

    Assume that there is a counterexample: an integer n2 such that there is no prime p with n < p < 2n. If 2n < 427, then p can be chosen from among the prime numbers 3, 5, 7, 13, 23, 43, 83, 163, 317, 631 (each being the largest prime less than twice its predecessor) such that n < p < 2n. Therefore, n ≥ 427.

  6. Bertrand's postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertrand's_postulate

    In 1973, Denis Hanson proved that there exists a prime between 3n and 4n. [5] In 2006, apparently unaware of Hanson's result, M. El Bachraoui proposed a proof that there exists a prime between 2n and 3n. [6] El Bachraoui's proof is an extension of Erdős's arguments for the primes between n and 2n.

  7. 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + ⋯ - ⋯ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1_%2B_2_%2B_4_%2B_8_%2B_%E...

    The first four partial sums of 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + ⋯. In mathematics, 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + ⋯ is the infinite series whose terms are the successive powers of two. As a geometric series, it is characterized by its first term, 1, and its common ratio, 2. As a series of real numbers it diverges to infinity, so the sum of this series is infinity.

    Susanna and the Elders by Artemisia Gentileschi. Susanna (/ s u ˈ z æ n ə /; Hebrew: שׁוֹשַׁנָּה, Modern: Šōšanna, Tiberian: Šōšannā: "lily"), also called Susanna and the Elders, is a narrative included in the Book of Daniel (as chapter 13) by the Catholic Church, Oriental Orthodox Churches and Eastern Orthodox Churches.

  9. Mersenne prime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mersenne_prime

    That is, and in accordance with Mihăilescu's theorem, the equation 2 m − 1 = n k has no solutions where m, n, and k are integers with m > 1 and k > 1. The Mersenne number sequence is a member of the family of Lucas sequences. It is U n (3, 2). That is, Mersenne number m n = 3m n-1 - 2m n-2 with m 0 = 0 and m 1 = 1.
