A roll of two 6s (the highest roll possible) on a pair of 6-sided dice. The probability of rolling boxcars in a single roll of two dice is 1/36, or 2.777...%. In order to ...

Also called "Ethiopian multiplication." To multiply two numbers a and b, write a_0=a and b_0=b in two columns. Under a_0, write |_a_0/2_|, where |_x_| is the floor function, ...

A quasiperfect number, called a "slightly excessive number" by Singh (1997), is a "least" abundant number, i.e., one such that sigma(n)=2n+1. Quasiperfect numbers are ...

A Pascal's triangle written in a square grid and padded with zeros, as written by Jakob Bernoulli (Smith 1984). The figurate number triangle therefore has entries a_(ij)=(i; ...

The elongated triangular orthobicupola is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(35). The unit longated triangular orthobicupola has volume ...

The great ditrigonal dodecicosidodecahedron is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 42 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 81 (Wenninger 1989), Coxeter index 54 (Coxeter et ...

2023-08-30 The great ditrigonal icosidodecahedron is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 47 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 87 (Wenninger 1989), Coxeter index 58 (Coxeter ...

The (general) icosahedron is a 20-faced polyhedron (where icos- derives from the Greek word for "twenty" and -hedron comes from the Indo-European word for "seat"). Examples ...

The mean triangle area A^_ is the average area of a triangle in triangle picking within some given shape. As summarized in the following table, it is possible to compute the ...

Let the values of a function f(x) be tabulated at points x_i equally spaced by h=x_(i+1)-x_i, so f_1=f(x_1), f_2=f(x_2), ..., f_(11)=f(x_(11)). Then Shovelton's rule ...
