When exponents were introduced in the 16th and 17th centuries, they were given precedence over both addition and multiplication and placed as a superscript to the right of their base. [2] Thus 3 + 5 2 = 28 and 3 × 5 2 = 75. These conventions exist to avoid notational ambiguity while allowing notation to remain brief. [4]

6-5=2 is a 2013 Kannada found footage horror film, written and directed by K S Ashoka in his directoral debut. It is the first found footage film in Kannada. [2] The plot revolves around a fatal trek accident. [3] The film was reported to have taken its inspiration from the 1999 American independent film The Blair Witch Project. [3]
Conway chained arrow notation, created by mathematician John Horton Conway, is a means of expressing certain extremely large numbers. [1] It is simply a finite sequence of positive integers separated by rightward arrows, e.g. .
Decimal: Binary: 11 3 1011 11 5 6 101 110 2 12 10 1100 1 24 1 11000 —— —————— 33 100001 Describing the steps explicitly: 11 and 3 are written at the top; 11 is halved (5.5) and 3 is doubled (6). The fractional portion is discarded (5.5 becomes 5).

The Pell numbers are defined by the recurrence relation: = {=; =; + In words, the sequence of Pell numbers starts with 0 and 1, and then each Pell number is the sum of twice the previous Pell number, plus the Pell number before that.
While base ten is normally used for scientific notation, powers of other bases can be used too, [25] base 2 being the next most commonly used one. For example, in base-2 scientific notation, the number 1001 b in binary (=9 d) is written as 1.001 b × 2 d 11 b or 1.001 b × 10 b 11 b using binary numbers (or shorter 1.001 × 10 11 if binary ...
