The only known powers of 2 with all digits even are 2 1 = 2, 2 2 = 4, 2 3 = 8, 2 6 = 64 and 2 11 = 2048. [12] The first 3 powers of 2 with all but last digit odd is 2 4 = 16, 2 5 = 32 and 2 9 = 512. The next such power of 2 of form 2 n should have n of at least 6 digits.
Smoothmax of (−x, x) versus x for various parameter values. Very smooth for =0.5, and more sharp for =8. For large positive values of the parameter >, the following formulation is a smooth, differentiable approximation of the maximum function. For negative values of the parameter that are large in absolute value, it approximates the minimum.
Exponentiation for a natural power is defined as iterated multiplication, which Knuth denoted by a single up-arrow: a ↑ b = H 3 ( a , b ) = a b = a × a × ⋯ × a ⏟ b copies of a {\displaystyle {\begin{matrix}a\uparrow b=H_{3}(a,b)=a^{b}=&\underbrace {a\times a\times \dots \times a} \\&b{\mbox{ copies of }}a\end{matrix}}}
For instance, 299 792 458 m/s (the speed of light in vacuum, in metres per second) can be written as 2.997 924 58 × 10 8 m/s and then approximated as 2.998 × 10 8 m/s. SI prefixes based on powers of 10 are also used to describe small or large quantities. For example, the prefix kilo means 10 3 = 1000, so a kilometre is 1000 m.
For example, 2 tetrated to 4 (or the fourth tetration of 2) is = = = =. It is the next hyperoperation after exponentiation , but before pentation . The word was coined by Reuben Louis Goodstein from tetra- (four) and iteration .
