  2. Doubling the cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubling_the_cube

    In algebraic terms, doubling a unit cube requires the construction of a line segment of length x, where x 3 = 2; in other words, x = , the cube root of two. This is because a cube of side length 1 has a volume of 1 3 = 1 , and a cube of twice that volume (a volume of 2) has a side length of the cube root of 2.

  3. Palindromic number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palindromic_number

    For example, 196 does not yield a palindrome even after 700,000,000 iterations. Any number that never becomes palindromic in this way is known as a Lychrel number . On January 24, 2017, the number 1,999,291,987,030,606,810 was published in OEIS as A281509 and announced "The Largest Known Most Delayed Palindrome".

  4. Fermat's Last Theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat's_Last_Theorem

    Fermat added that he had a proof that was too large to fit in the margin. Although other statements claimed by Fermat without proof were subsequently proven by others and credited as theorems of Fermat (for example, Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares), Fermat's Last Theorem resisted proof, leading to doubt that Fermat ever had a correct proof.

  5. Anthony Michael Brooks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Michael_Brooks

    Anthony Michael Brooks is an American speed cubing champion. He specializes in the 2x2 cube and classic 3x3 cube, and used to be officially ranked in the top five [1] in the world in both categories as recognized by the World Cube Association. Since learning to solve the cube in March 2008, Brooks has become known for developing advanced ...

    Examples are: cablegram (cable telegram), op art (optical art), org-man (organization man), linocut (linoleum cut). Sometimes both halves of a compound are clipped as in navicert ( navi gation cert ificate).

  7. Burnside's lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burnside's_lemma

    Burnside's lemma can compute the number of rotationally distinct colourings of the faces of a cube using three colours.. Let X be the set of 3 6 possible face color combinations that can be applied to a fixed cube, and let the rotation group G of the cube act on X by moving the colored faces: two colorings in X belong to the same orbit precisely when one is a rotation of the other.

  8. Cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube

    The cube can be represented as the cell, and examples of a honeycomb are cubic honeycomb, order-5 cubic honeycomb, order-6 cubic honeycomb, and order-7 cubic honeycomb. [47] The cube can be constructed with six square pyramids, tiling space by attaching their apices. [48] Polycube is a polyhedron in which the faces of many cubes are attached.

  9. Chunking (writing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chunking_(writing)

    Chunking is a method of presenting information which splits concepts into small pieces or "chunks" of information to make reading and understanding faster and easier. Chunking is especially useful for material presented on the web because readers tend to scan for specific information on a web page rather than read the page sequentially.
