In number theory, a narcissistic number [1] [2] (also known as a pluperfect digital invariant (PPDI), [3] an Armstrong number [4] (after Michael F. Armstrong) [5] or a plus perfect number) [6] in a given number base is a number that is the sum of its own digits each raised to the power of the number of digits.
For example, squaring the number "1111" yields "1234321", which can be written as "01234321", an 8-digit number being the square of a 4-digit number. This gives "2343" as the "random" number. Repeating this procedure gives "4896" as the next result, and so on. Von Neumann used 10 digit numbers, but the process was the same.
As an example, 108 is a powerful number. Its prime factorization is 2 2 · 3 3, and thus its prime factors are 2 and 3.Both 2 2 = 4 and 3 2 = 9 are divisors of 108. However, 108 cannot be represented as m k, where m and k are positive integers greater than 1, so 108 is an Achilles number.
An example of an uninformatively named constant is int SIXTEEN = 16, while int NUMBER_OF_BITS = 16 is more descriptive. The problems associated with magic 'numbers' described above are not limited to numerical types and the term is also applied to other data types where declaring a named constant would be more flexible and communicative.

Input #1: b, the number of bits of the result Input #2: k, the number of rounds of testing to perform Output: a strong probable prime n while True: pick a random odd integer n in the range [2 b −1 , 2 b −1] if the Miller–Rabin test with inputs n and k returns “ probably prime ” then return n

In number theory, a perfect digit-to-digit invariant (PDDI; also known as a Munchausen number [1]) is a natural number in a given number base that is equal to the sum of its digits each raised to the power of itself. An example in base 10 is 3435, because = + + +.
