Annotated version of "What's Special About This Number?" (Part 6)
Introduction
Erich Friedman has a very nice (and deservedly popular) page called What's Special About This Number?
It does not, however, mention the sequences in the OEIS where these numbers can be found (and from where I suspect most of the entries were taken).
The present set of ten pages is a snapshot of his page as of May 23, 2010, with pointers to the corresponding entries in the OEIS. The pages are:
- Part 0: 0 to 999,
- Part 1: 1000 to 1999,
- Part 2: 2000 to 2999,
- Part 3: 3000 to 3999,
- Part 4: 4000 to 4999,
- Part 5: 5000 to 5999,
- Part 6: 6000 to 6999,
- Part 7: 7000 to 7999,
- Part 8: 8000 to 8999,
- Part 9: 9000 to 9999.
People are invited to add more pointers to these pages, by adding the appropriate A-numbers to the entries. It may be necessary to create new sequences to do this - see A158304 for an example.
I should add that this is being done with Erich Friedman's approval.
I did not do a very good job of converting the original html format to wiki format, and in some cases you may have to refer to Erich's page to figure out the meaning or the links.
You may well find better descriptions for some numbers. If so, please send them to Erich and make the corresponding changes here. (The wiki software is complaining that these pages are too long. I decided to ignore these complaints.)
