  2. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    The machine will perform the following three steps on any odd number until only one 1 remains: Append 1 to the (right) end of the number in binary (giving 2n + 1); Add this to the original number by binary addition (giving 2n + 1 + n = 3n + 1); Remove all trailing 0 s (that is, repeatedly divide by 2 until the result is odd). Example

  3. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    If the thousands digit is even, the number formed by the last three digits must be divisible by 16. 254,176: 176. If the thousands digit is odd, the number formed by the last three digits must be 8 times an odd number. 3408: 408 = 8 x 51. Add the last two digits to four times the rest. The result must be divisible by 16. 176: 1 × 4 + 76 = 80.

  4. Legendre's three-square theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legendre's_three-square...

    In mathematics, Legendre's three-square theorem states that a natural number can be represented as the sum of three squares of integers. if and only if n is not of the form for nonnegative integers a and b . The first numbers that cannot be expressed as the sum of three squares (i.e. numbers that can be expressed as ) are. 7, 15, 23, 28, 31, 39 ...

  5. Lychrel number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lychrel_number

    A Lychrel number is a natural number that cannot form a palindrome through the iterative process of repeatedly reversing its digits and adding the resulting numbers. This process is sometimes called the 196-algorithm , after the most famous number associated with the process.

  6. Sum of two squares theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sum_of_two_squares_theorem

    The prime decomposition of the number 3430 is 2 · 5 · 7 3. This time, the exponent of 7 in the decomposition is 3, an odd number. So 3430 cannot be written as the sum of two squares. Representable numbers. The numbers that can be represented as the sums of two squares form the integer sequence

  7. Integer partition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_partition

    In number theory and combinatorics, a partition of a non-negative integer n, also called an integer partition, is a way of writing n as a sum of positive integers. Two sums that differ only in the order of their summands are considered the same partition. (If order matters, the sum becomes a composition .)

  8. Karatsuba algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karatsuba_algorithm

    The Karatsuba algorithm is a fast multiplication algorithm. It was discovered by Anatoly Karatsuba in 1960 and published in 1962. [1] [2] [3] It is a divide-and-conquer algorithm that reduces the multiplication of two n -digit numbers to three multiplications of n /2-digit numbers and, by repeating this reduction, to at most single-digit ...

  9. Gray code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_code

    In principle, there can be more than one such code for a given word length, but the term Gray code was first applied to a particular binary code for non-negative integers, the binary-reflected Gray code, or BRGC. Bell Labs researcher George R. Stibitz described such a code in a 1941 patent application, granted in 1943.
