-----Number Gossip-----------------------------------------------

Number Gossip: Enter a number and I'll tell you everything you wanted to know about it but were afraid to ask.





So I tried 24. Apparently it is Evil!


Common Properties of 24: Evil
The number n is evil if it has an even number of 1's in its binary expansion.





Also:


24 is the only number that is the product of all the numbers less than its square root
24 divides the difference between any two prime squares greater than three
Subtracting one from each of its divisors (except 1 and 2, but including itself) yields a prime number - 24 is the largest number with this property
24 is the smallest abundant factorial





Another random number tried:5648


Common Properties of 5648
Apocalyptic power
The number n is called an apocalyptic power if 2^n contains the consecutive digits 666 (in decimal).

Slow posting...

Since I'm only working 3 days in a two week period and most others aren't working as much either posts will be and have been slow during the holidays. I'm sure that Janurary 4th it will be back to normal.

Oh, and Re-Purposing an Item Monday is over, so any thoughts on a new idea?
