  2. Fermat's factorization method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat's_factorization_method

    Since N is odd, then c and d are also odd, so those halves are integers. (A multiple of four is also a difference of squares: let c and d be even.) In its simplest form, Fermat's method might be even slower than trial division (worst case). Nonetheless, the combination of trial division and Fermat's is more effective than either by itself.

  3. Sample space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_space

    A visual representation of a finite sample space and events. The red oval is the event that a number is odd, and the blue oval is the event that a number is prime. A sample space can be represented visually by a rectangle, with the outcomes of the sample space denoted by points within the rectangle.

  4. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    An integer is even if it is congruent to 0 modulo this ideal, in other words if it is congruent to 0 modulo 2, and odd if it is congruent to 1 modulo 2. All prime numbers are odd, with one exception: the prime number 2. [14] All known perfect numbers are even; it is unknown whether any odd perfect numbers exist. [15]

  5. List of types of numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_types_of_numbers

    Even and odd numbers: An integer is even if it is a multiple of 2, and is odd otherwise. Prime number : A positive integer with exactly two positive divisors : itself and 1. The primes form an infinite sequence 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, ...

  6. Fermat primality test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat_primality_test

    Using fast algorithms for modular exponentiation and multiprecision multiplication, the running time of this algorithm is O(k log 2 n log log n) = Õ(k log 2 n), where k is the number of times we test a random a, and n is the value we want to test for primality; see Miller–Rabin primality test for details.

  7. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    The last two digits form a number that is divisible by 4. [2] [3] 40,832: 32 is divisible by 4. If the tens digit is even, the ones digit must be 0, 4, or 8. If the tens digit is odd, the ones digit must be 2 or 6. 40,832: 3 is odd, and the last digit is 2. The sum of the ones digit and double the tens digit is divisible by 4.

  8. Singly and doubly even - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singly_and_doubly_even

    Singly even numbers are those with ν 2 (n) = 1, i.e., integers of the form 4m + 2. Doubly even numbers are those with ν 2 (n) > 1, i.e., integers of the form 4m. In this terminology, a doubly even number may or may not be divisible by 8, so there is no particular terminology for "triply even" numbers in pure math, although it is used in ...

  9. Grammatical number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammatical_number

    In linguistics, grammatical number is a feature of nouns, pronouns, adjectives and verb agreement that expresses count distinctions (such as "one", "two" or "three or more"). [1] English and many other languages present number categories of singular or plural. Some languages also have a dual, trial and paucal number or other arrangements.
