... That is, p=641=6(107)-1 and q=6700417=6(1116736)+1. Note the opposite sign in the p and q appendages. This is consistent with the fact that N mod(6)=5. This semi-prime is of historical interest since it was the first Fermat Number F[n]=2^2^n+1 to be proven to be a composite. To date none of the Ferm ...

... patterns. The algebraic formulas we have found in this book are compact ways of describing a pattern. For example, the familiar equation (a + b) 2 = a 2 + 2ab + b 2 gives the pattern for squaring the sum of two numbers. Another example we have encountered is the pattern for the sum of the first n od ...

We’ve assumed here that one can measure precisely to one-tenth of the smallest markings on the ruler—in this case, that means to the nearest 0.01 cm. This example illustrates the general concept of significant figures (hereafter cal ...

Location arithmetic

Location arithmetic (Latin arithmeticæ localis) is the additive (non-positional) binary numeral systems, which John Napier explored as a computation technique in his treatise Rabdology (1617), both symbolically and on a chessboard-like grid.Napier's terminology, derived from using the positions of counters on the board to represent numbers, is potentially misleading in current vocabulary because the numbering system is non-positional.During Napier's time, most of the computations were made on boards with tally-marks or jetons. So, unlike it may be seen by modern reader, his goal was not to use moves of counters on a board to multiply, divide and find square roots, but rather to find a way to compute symbolically.However, when reproduced on the board, this new technique did not require mental trial-and-error computations nor complex carry memorization (unlike base 10 computations). He was so pleased by his discovery that he said in his preface ... it might be well described as more of a lark than a labor, for it carries out addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and the extraction of square roots purely by moving counters from place to place.
