trinary? gee, i didn't say that the new level was trinary, did i? :)
the new count is:
= 1 408 159 732 818 603 515 628
(1.4 thousand million million million moves)
i decided to avoid using the names for numbers larger than
a "million" since there doesn't seem to be an international standard
system.
the sort-of "prime" generator calculates:
N = m x 4 + 1
for m = 2,4,6,8...
so, it calculates for N:
9 = 3*3
17 = 17
25 = 5*5
33 = 3*11
41 = 41
49 = 7*7
57 = 3*19
65 = 5*13
73 = 73
81 = 9*9
and so on...
many but not all of which are prime, but which eventually contain the
factors of all the prime numbers, (except for 2). it doesn't quite
tell you which results are prime.
actually, i also found some other structures to work in base 2, 3,
4, ... up to base 13.
more and more possibilities are opening up, so Fibonacci may not be
impossible. maybe someone will calculate pi someday : )
