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.
A list of articles about numbers (not about numerals). Topics include powers of ten, notable integers, prime and cardinal numbers, and the myriad system.
This is a list of articles about prime numbers. A prime number (or prime) is a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself. By Euclid's theorem, there are an infinite number of prime numbers. Subsets of the prime numbers may be generated with various formulas for primes.
A number that is non-palindromic in all bases b in the range 2 ≤ b ≤ n − 2 can be called a strictly non-palindromic number. For example, the number 6 is written as "110" in base 2, "20" in base 3, and "12" in base 4, none of which are palindromes. All strictly non-palindromic numbers larger than 6 are prime.
Patterns can be seen in the last digits of the Mersenne primes and corresponding perfect numbers above, but they are simple properties of the odd-numbered Mersenne numbers and do not depend on their primality. Multiplying by 2 generates a cycle of length 4 modulo 5 (1, 2, 4, 3, repeat). Thus, 2 4k ±1 ≡ ±2 (mod 5).

Quinary (base 5 or pental [1] [2] [3]) is a numeral system with five as the base. A possible origination of a quinary system is that there are five digits on either hand . In the quinary place system, five numerals, from 0 to 4 , are used to represent any real number .
The first (base-10) triply palindromic prime is the 11-digit number 10000500001. It is possible that a triply palindromic prime in base 10 may also be palindromic in another base, such as base 2, but it would be highly remarkable if it were also a triply palindromic prime in that base as well.
