    It may be Belphagor's number, but I think he'd be too lazy to write it out.

    It also only has 3 distinct figures - 0, 1, 6 - and is written in base 10. Add 3 and 10 and once again you get 13. I can already smell the sulphur!

    I hadn't heard of "Belphegor" before. Upon looking it up, I see this name is a corruption of the biblical Hebrew name Baal Peor, the god of the Moabites, who was worshipped in obscene rituals. Check out the book of Numbers, chapter 24.

    It is beastly palindromic because simply beastly would be 1000000000000066610000000000000, which is not a prime.

    Is it really a prime number?

    • @lagomoof
      @lagomoof 3 месяца назад +6

      Yes!
      You might expect we'd have to try to divide it by all numbers less than it to check, but it's not necessary. There are mathematical methods to check if a number is composite that are much more efficient than that. When automated by a computer, those methods will tell you that this number isn't composite (and so prime) in a very short time.
      But if someone really wanted to go to the effort of having a computer do it the hard way, and they probably have, the number is small enough that a divisor would have been found by now. And that would have been big, big news.

      Unfortunately, average people are not intelligent. Religion will never find itself leaving society. Though critical thinking and scepticism are clearly the best way to think, average people don't bother with this all that much. They have faith, and dogma.

      This is actually a rare case of "religious" themes being justified in a math video. Channels such as Numberphile make these kind of videos too. As a non-religious person I can acknowledge that religions have imprinted concepts such as the number 666 in our culture. It is the biblical verses at the end of the videos lately which I find "out of place."
