A random number which lies within a specified range (which can, without loss of generality, be taken as [0, 1]), with a uniform distribution.

A number is said to be biquadratefree (or quarticfree) if its prime factorization contains no quadrupled factors. All primes and prime powers p^n with n<=3 are therefore ...

A centered triangular number is a centered polygonal number consisting of a central dot with three dots around it, and then additional dots in the gaps between adjacent dots. ...

A polygonal number of the form N_n=n(7n-5)/2, also called an enneagonal number. The first few are 1, 9, 24, 46, 75, 111, 154, 204, ... (OEIS A001106). The generating function ...

Given an integer e>=2, the Payam number E_+/-(e) is the smallest positive odd integer k such that for every positive integer n, the number k·2^n+/-1 is not divisible by any ...

A number n is practical if for all k<=n, k is the sum of distinct proper divisors of n. Defined in 1948 by A. K. Srinivasen. All even perfect numbers are practical. The ...

A number traditionally associated with bad luck. A so-called baker's dozen is equal to 13. Fear of the number 13 is called triskaidekaphobia. There are 13 Archimedean solids. ...

Define the harmonic mean of the divisors of n H(n)=(sigma_0(n))/(sum_(d|n)1/d), where sigma_0(n) is the divisor function (the number of divisors of n). For n=1, 2, ..., the ...

Rational numbers are countable, so an order can be placed on them just like the natural numbers. Although such an ordering is not obvious (nor unique), one such ordering can ...

Every "large" even number may be written as 2n=p+m where p is a prime and m in P union P_2 is the set of primes P and semiprimes P_2.
