The generation number can be calculated as the logarithm to base 2 of the ahnentafel number, and rounding down to a full integer by truncating decimal digits. For example, the number 38 is between 2 5 =32 and 2 6 =64, so log 2 (38) is between 5 and 6. This means that ancestor no.38 belongs to generation five, and was a great-great-great ...
In order to readily have the generation stated for a certain person, the Ahnentafel numbering may be preceded by the generation.

The net reproductive rate is the number of offspring an individual is expected to produce during its lifetime: = means demographic equilibrium. One may then define the generation time T {\displaystyle T} as the time it takes for the population to increase by a factor of R 0 {\displaystyle \textstyle R_{0}} .
