C1ay Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 That would be on topic in the palindrome thread :xx: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 ___Keeping in mind of course that the business of palindromes is merely a consequence of base. Your 4444 in base ten a palindrome, is 10534 in base eight & not a palindrome.___If you want a record everyday, simply rewrite your number in an appropriate base.

nkt Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 Turtle, that will only work for a small subset of numbers. True, it will be often enough that it isn't anything noteworthy, but there we go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pgrmdave Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 I must say, I miss when the top fifteen posters were listed along the side in the forum index. Of course, I shot up on to there, and now I'm almost pushed off! :Alien: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
