Sheldon Prime
73 (seventy-three) is the natural number following 72 (number), 72 and preceding 74 (number), 74. In English, it is the smallest natural number with twelve letters in its spelled out name. It is the 21st prime number and the fourth star number. It is also the eighth twin prime, with 71 (number), 71. In mathematics 73 is the 21st prime number, and emirp with 37 (number), 37, the 12th prime number. It is also the eighth twin prime, with 71 (number), 71. It is the largest minimal Primitive root modulo n, primitive root in the first 100,000 primes; in other words, if is one of the first one hundred thousand primes, then at least one of the numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ..., 73 is a primitive root modulo . 73 is also the smallest factor of the first Composite number, composite generalized Fermat number in decimal: 10^+1=10,001=73\times 137, and the smallest prime Modular arithmetic#Congruence, congruent to 1 modulo 24 (number), 24, as well as the only prime repunit in octal (1118).

Prime Number
A prime number (or a prime) is a natural number greater than 1 that is not a Product (mathematics), product of two smaller natural numbers. A natural number greater than 1 that is not prime is called a composite number. For example, 5 is prime because the only ways of writing it as a product, or , involve 5 itself. However, 4 is composite because it is a product (2 × 2) in which both numbers are smaller than 4. Primes are central in number theory because of the fundamental theorem of arithmetic: every natural number greater than 1 is either a prime itself or can be factorization, factorized as a product of primes that is unique up to their order. The property of being prime is called primality. A simple but slow primality test, method of checking the primality of a given number , called trial division, tests whether is a multiple of any integer between 2 and . Faster algorithms include the Miller–Rabin primality test, which is fast but has a small chance of error ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Octal
Octal (base 8) is a numeral system with eight as the base. In the decimal system, each place is a power of ten. For example: : \mathbf_ = \mathbf \times 10^1 + \mathbf \times 10^0 In the octal system, each place is a power of eight. For example: : \mathbf_8 = \mathbf \times 8^2 + \mathbf \times 8^1 + \mathbf \times 8^0 By performing the calculation above in the familiar decimal system, we see why 112 in octal is equal to 64+8+2=74 in decimal. Octal numerals can be easily converted from binary representations (similar to a quaternary numeral system) by grouping consecutive binary digits into groups of three (starting from the right, for integers). For example, the binary representation for decimal 74 is 1001010. Two zeroes can be added at the left: , corresponding to the octal digits , yielding the octal representation 112. Usage In China The eight bagua or trigrams of the I Ching correspond to octal digits: * 0 = ☷, 1 = ☳, 2 = ☵, 3 = ☱, * 4 = ☶, ...

Fourth Power
In arithmetic and algebra, the fourth power of a number ''n'' is the result of multiplying four instances of ''n'' together. So: :''n''4 = ''n'' × ''n'' × ''n'' × ''n'' Fourth powers are also formed by multiplying a number by its cube. Furthermore, they are squares of squares. Some people refer to ''n''4 as n '' tesseracted'', '' hypercubed'', '' zenzizenzic'', '' biquadrate'' or ''supercubed'' instead of “to the power of 4”. The sequence of fourth powers of integers, known as biquadrates or tesseractic numbers, is: :0, 1, 16, 81, 256, 625, 1296, 2401, 4096, 6561, 10000, 14641, 20736, 28561, 38416, 50625, 65536, 83521, 104976, 130321, 160000, 194481, 234256, 279841, 331776, 390625, 456976, 531441, 614656, 707281, 810000, ... . Properties The last digit of a fourth power in decimal can only be 0, 1, 5, or 6. In hexadecimal the last nonzero digit of a fourth power is always 1.An odd fourth power is the square of an odd square number. All odd squares are congruent to 1 ...
