The group also computed the density of primes among numbers up to 10,000,000 along some of the prime-rich lines as well as along some of the prime-poor lines. Images of the spiral up to 65,000 points were displayed on "a scope attached to the machine" and then photographed. [ 6 ]
There are known formulae to evaluate the prime-counting function (the number of primes smaller than a given value) faster than computing the primes. This has been used to compute that there are 1,925,320,391,606,803,968,923 primes (roughly 2 × 10 21 ) smaller than 10 23 .
L 1 L 2 NUL 2 L 1 R 2: Hexagonal grid, spiral growth. R 1 R 2 NUR 2 R 1 L 2 : Animation. The hexagonal grid permits up to six different rotations, which are notated here as N (no change), R 1 (60° clockwise), R 2 (120° clockwise), U (180°), L 2 (120° counter-clockwise), L 1 (60° counter-clockwise).
The grid method (also known as the box method) of multiplication is an introductory approach to multi-digit multiplication calculations that involve numbers larger than ten. Because it is often taught in mathematics education at the level of primary school or elementary school , this algorithm is sometimes called the grammar school method.
The number appears in the Padovan sequence, preceded by 86, 114, 151 (it is the sum of the first two of these). [1] The sum of Euler's totient function φ(x) over the first twenty-five integers is 200. 200 is the smallest base 10 unprimeable number – it cannot be turned into a prime number by changing just one of its digits to any other digit.
Although the problem can be solved with points for every up to , it is conjectured that fewer than points can be placed in grids of large size. Known methods can place linearly many points in grids of arbitrary size, but the best of these methods place slightly fewer than 1.5 n {\displaystyle 1.5n} points, not 2 n {\displaystyle 2n} .
2. Denotes that a number is positive and is read as plus. Redundant, but sometimes used for emphasizing that a number is positive, specially when other numbers in the context are or may be negative; for example, +2. 3. Sometimes used instead of for a disjoint union of sets. − 1.
The canonical Kakuro puzzle is played in a grid of filled and barred cells, "black" and "white" respectively. Puzzles are usually 16×16 in size, although these dimensions can vary widely. Apart from the top row and leftmost column which are entirely black, the grid is divided into "entries"—lines of white cells—by the black cells.
