RE: good number hierarchy - a52 - 12-13-2016

yes, I am in agreement.

the three hiding in 256 always bothered me, it was such a perfect number otherwise.

8658 is the best number.

6+28+496+8128 = 8658 (first four perfect numbers)
666*13 = 8658


RE: good number hierarchy - a52 - 12-13-2016

no.

first of all, that's only got a single 2 in there. it's just barely even.

second, what's so special about the first four perfect numbers? why not the first five? or first 100? it's completely arbitrary.

third, 666 is of no mathematical importance, and 13 is of very little. both are horribly ugly, 666 having far too many threes (and sixes, which I personally consider worse), 13 having no factors at all.

So I'm guessing 7625597484987 is right out?


RE: good number hierarchy - btp - 12-13-2016

If it takes 2 to tango, how many tangos are in 4? 256?

Well, it's better than say 7625597484988. But still nowhere near as good as anything 2^2^n.
