Happy New Year Cuch!

With Love

2020 is of course a periodic number in every base >=3 and so perhaps, even sadly, it cannot be a prime year.

I have fond memories of Random Walkers - perhaps another?

Google "trientropy" or look me up on Arxiv. All feedback welcomed.

With great thanks to Wilmotters over all these years.

A few months ago I completed a draft paper that showed, based upon some Monte Carlo simulation, that the distribution of primes around a quadratic was Gaussian.The quadratic is based upon the Logarithmic Integrand Li(x). This would appear to be another demonstration that the RH is true. I now have t...

Its not my most politically correct post. For which apologies. I'm still around and having fun. I hope you lot are having fun too! Bfn

<t>QuoteOriginally posted by: Traden4AlphaNice! You might enjoy exploring the binary series produced by various 1-D cellular automata.Good idea!

<t>The European Spreadsheet Risks Interest Group 17th Annual Conference (EuSpRIG 2016) will be held at the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), Moorgate, London, on the 7th & 8th July 2016.

There are obvious risks.But significant benefits too, as the new emerges from the old.Forum II on main menu. Start date 01/01/2016.Old Forum I still accessible, read only.....

<t>No, the RAND distribution of 1947 vintage was uniform random. I did a recent analysis of it here. There are better sources of random digits.You will need a good source of random numbers to perform the stratified sampling of the cumulative distribution function of the Zipf Mandelbrot distribution....

<t>You need to partition the Cumulative Distribution of the Zipf Mandelbrot function into 10,000 equidistant regions. Then use a good quality random number generator in (0,1) to sample each region. Its called stratified sampling/latin hypercube sampling.I recommmend that you turn off your television...

<t>Hmm,So I just rediscovered the prime constant, which is already proven irrational - in, er 1938 - Hardy and Wright, page 112, - thanks wileysw. How the f*ck did I miss that? And I demonstrated that I didn't do a first year analysis course - thanks cuch & outrun - but I can forgive myself as I...

<t>It seems obvious that E0 must be transcendental, else there exists a polynomial which has as one of its roots a number which expresses exactly the infinite pattern of the primes. I am hoping I have missed something blindingly obvious, or have failed to make a few simple connections between a few ...

<t>There was an open house night down at the local pub a little while ago. I printed out a couple of copies of the steak and sex day piece I posted at the beginning of this thread. A very cute female volunteer - a seasoned thespian - read the female piece. I then read the male bit. We alternated eac...

Woof Woof!Great barks of joy following positive review comments.More later.
