单词 | Cyclic Number |
释义 | Cyclic NumberA number having Digits which, when Multiplied by 1, 2, 3, ..., ,produces the same digits in a different order. Cyclic numbers are generated by the Unit Fractions which have maximal period Decimal Expansions (which means must be Prime). Thefirst few numbers which generate cyclic numbers are 7, 17, 19, 23, 29, 47, 59, 61, 97, ... (Sloane's A001913). A muchlarger generator is 17389. It has been conjectured, but not yet proven, that an Infinite number of cyclic numbers exist. In fact, theFraction of Primes which generate cyclic numbers seems to be approximately 3/8. See Yates (1973) for a table ofPrime period lengths for Primes . When a cyclic number is multiplied by its generator, the result is astring of 9s. This is a special case of Midy's Theorem. 07=0.142857 17=0.0588235294117647 19=0.052631578947368421 23=0.0434782608695652173913 29=0.0344827586206896551724137931 47=0.0212765957446808510638297872340425531914893617 59=0.0169491525423728813559322033898305084745762711864406779661 61=0.016393442622950819672131147540983606557377049180327868852459 97=0.010309278350515463917525773195876288659793814432989690721649484536082474226804123711340206185567 See also Decimal Expansion, Midy's Theorem
