  2. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_(mathematics)

    Even and odd numbers have opposite parities, e.g., 22 (even number) and 13 (odd number) have opposite parities. In particular, the parity of zero is even. [2] Any two consecutive integers have opposite parity. A number (i.e., integer) expressed in the decimal numeral system is even or odd according to whether its last digit is even or odd. That ...

  3. List of sums of reciprocals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sums_of_reciprocals

    The sum of the reciprocals of the palindromic numbers converges to approximately 3.3703 . A pentatope number is a number in the fifth cell of any row of Pascal's triangle starting with the five-term row 1 4 6 4 1 . The sum of the reciprocals of the pentatope numbers is ⁠ 4 / 3 ⁠ .

  4. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    The number is taken to be 'odd' or 'even' according to whether its numerator is odd or even. Then the formula for the map is exactly the same as when the domain is the integers: an 'even' such rational is divided by 2; an 'odd' such rational is multiplied by 3 and then 1 is added.

  5. Sequence number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_number

    A sequence number is a consecutive number in a sequence of numbers, usually of real integers (natural numbers).Sequence numbers have many practical applications. They can be used, among other things, as part of serial numbers on manufactured parts, in case management, [1] or in databases as a surrogate key for registering and identifying unique entries in a table [2] [3] (in which case it is ...

  6. Polite number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polite_number

    In number theory, a polite number is a positive integer that can be written as the sum of two or more consecutive positive integers. A positive integer which is not polite is called impolite. [1] [2] The impolite numbers are exactly the powers of two, and the polite numbers are the natural numbers that are not powers of two.

  7. Integer sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_sequence

    An integer sequence is computable if there exists an algorithm that, given n, calculates a n, for all n > 0. The set of computable integer sequences is countable.The set of all integer sequences is uncountable (with cardinality equal to that of the continuum), and so not all integer sequences are computable.

  8. 38 (number) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/38_(number)

    37 and 38 are the first pair of consecutive positive integers not divisible by any of their digits. 38 is the largest even number which cannot be written as the sum of two odd composite numbers. The sum of each row of the only non-trivial (order 3) magic hexagon is 38. [4]

  9. Singly and doubly even - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singly_and_doubly_even

    A doubly even number is an integer that is divisible more than once by 2; it is even and its quotient by 2 is also even. The separate consideration of oddly and evenly even numbers is useful in many parts of mathematics, especially in number theory, combinatorics , coding theory (see even codes ), among others.
