It all depends on how you parenthesize it.

[@jeremydavis3631]

EDIT: This was my first impression. I've made another comment after thinking about it a bit more. Given that the size of a tower is unbounded and the size of a dungeon is asymptotically bounded (so that we only need two nested logarithms to get it to a friendly size), the combination should diverge to infinity, just slightly more slowly than the tower alone would. Calculating the terms of the sequence would be quite a bit harder, though.

[@jeremydavis3631]

Oh, wait, I think my first impression was wrong. As Patrick Hanlon said, it depends on how you parenthesize it. If the last operation we do (assuming it makes any sense to talk about a "last" operation in an infinite sequence) is part of the tower, the result should be unbounded, since we're raising a large number to an unbounded power. If the last thing we do is part of the dungeon, it'll drag us back to the asymptote, and so it *might* be bounded. Proving that it actually *is* bounded for any given parenthesization strategy doesn't seem easy, though.

At first I was like "wait, this is a really simple pattern, 10, 11, 13, 16, 20... that just means that I have to add 1 the first time, 2 the second time, 3 the third time and so on and so on". But then I saw the numbers at 6:13. Oh boy was I wrong. This pattern is not as simple as I thought.

[@martind2520]

The third sequence does actually follow that pattern, so you weren't completely wrong.

[@KnakuanaRka]

[@-johnny-deep-]

Yeah. Surprised that wasn't pointed out in the video.

[@JovianCloudfarmer]

This does still end up pretty base 10-centric, even though it plays with many different bases. I looked a little into how it ends up when you keep it all in binary and only convert to base 10 at the very end, and it was pretty interesting, since for example, the 4th step is no longer 10_11_12_13, it's 10_11_100_101. The introduction of a third digit in the base so quickly means that you start to square numbers in the base conversion process sooner, so the numbers start to grow bigger sooner. However, since it's powers of 2 and not powers of 10, I suspect that the size of the growth rate changes will be smaller, so it's very possible that base 10 will catch up in terms of number size after a number of steps. An example (using bottom-up parentheses): Base 10, 7th step: 10_11_12_13_14_15_16 = 31 Base 2, 7th step: 10_11_100_101_110_111_1000 = A 68-digit binary number, 193825204350418564226 in base 10

There are numeral systems that use complex numbers as their base. For example, the Quater-imaginary numeral system which uses the imaginary number 2i as its base. It is able to almost uniquely represent every complex number using only the digits 0, 1, 2, and 3. No minus sign is used for negative numbers in this numeral system, as they have a different representation from their positive counterparts.

[@Decessus117]

At first I was surprised by the growth of these sequences. However, after some thought, I think there's an intuition to be had here. When interpreting a number in a base (e.g., interpreting 153 in base 10), you *are* performing an exponentiation in some sense, because you're interpreting it as 1x10^2 + 5x10^1 + 3x10^0. But the trick here is that, despite interpreting the numbers in all these different bases, *we are restricting ourselves to the 10 regular digits!* So unlike in, say, hexadecimal, where the number after 99 is 9A, here the number after 99 is still 100. As a result, the instant that one of these sequences increments its second term, or reaches a 3rd term, it starts to grow by a factor of the base (and the base has been increasing for some time). This helps it very quickly reach a fourth term, and thus grow by the cube of the base, etc. After that it's clear to see why it explodes. If we allowed as many digits as bases (e.g., 8, 9, A, B, ...), the terms would just grow by one each time and the sequence would stick to the triangular numbers.

[@vsm1456]

[@frogandspanner]

It's good to see I am not alone in my filing system, especially the heap of books (One of my heaps at home became unstable, collapsed, and broke a table!) I extend the heap system thus: 1) Place anything incoming on one of the heaps on my desk 2) When needed, search for the item in the heap and, when finished with it return it to the top of the heap. 3) When the heaps become too tall to see over a) Take off the top half b) scoop off the bottom half into the bin c) Return the top half. In that way the communication from the Vice Chancellor progresses at a steady pace to the bottom of the heap and to the destination it ultimately deserves.

[@dieselguitar1440]

Wow, that's amazing! I thought that it was just a boring quadratic at first, and would've passed it off as such if it weren't for this video showing the cases past only a few iterations. What's going on here (I think), is that the bottom up approach starts getting "faster" with more digits, and the top down approach starts getting faster once to 10+X turns into 20+X.

[@esotericVideos]

It's interesting watching numberphile and getting a sense of the different mathematicians personalities. Some of them really like working towards some theory, some like real world implications, some like "giving it a go", and some like Klein bottles. But Neil Sloane more than anything seems to just like to play with numbers. There doesn't seem to need to be any greater meaning than saying "what if we play with weird rule X with these numbers". It makes sense why such a personality would create the OEIS.

[@mostlyokay]

I can't help but get a little dumbfounded by videos where he appears precisely because of that. In my mind here is no point in just finding number sequences without any connection to anything else in maths. But of course, time and time again results that were thought to be purely abstract and disjointed from other fields of maths have proven to be just the opposite.

10:02 I am delighted that the first five numbers of all 4 sequences are 10, 11, 13, 16, 20. I'm also appreciating that for two of the sequences the differences of sequential elements continue to be the natural numbers for a while longer.

[@davidgillies620]

The first sequence is A121263 in the OEIS. In Mathematica: define the rebase function, rebase[v_] := Join[Drop[v, -2], {FromDigits[IntegerDigits[v[[-2]]], Last[v]]}] Then define the dungeon number function to apply this recursively to a list of numbers: dun[n_] := First[Nest[rebase, Range[10, 9 + n], n - 1]]. Now make a table: dun[#] & /@ Range[20] which gives {10, 11, 13, 16, 20, 25, 31, 38, 46, 55, 65, 87, 135, 239, 463, 943, 1967, 4143, 8751, 18479}.

[@n0t10c]

I was just coming here to post this

[@SgtSupaman]

No, it isn't a coincidence, because the left digit is a one, which means it is just equal to whatever the base is while the right digit is equal to itself, so you are adding the base + right digit. Calculating bases (which essentially means converting from whatever base into base 10) looks like this x^y*a + x^(y+1)*b + x^(y+2)*c + ... (where x is the base, y=0 because you are starting from the first position left of the decimal, and [a,b,c,...]=whatever value is in that position). It is the same thing that you learn as a child when you say a number like 13790 has a 1 in the 'ten thousands' place, a 3 in the 'thousands' place, a 7 in the 'hundreds' place, a 9 in the 'tens' place, and a 0 in the 'ones' place. That means that the number is equal to 10^0*0+10^1*9+10^2*7+10^3*3+10^4*1 (or 0+90+700+3000+10000).

[@rosiefay7283]

3:05 This is reasonable. The "rebasing" operation treats its first (top, left) operand as a digit-string, and evaluates it in the base given by its second (bottom, right) operand, and gives you a number. So anything with a subscript is a digit-string, not a number. So in a stack of dungeons every level is a digit-string except the bottom one, so you have to start at the bottom and work up.

[@Axacqk]

Is the "slow" growing parenthesizing starts as a quadratic function because there are two digits, so the second power of the new base is the largest that ever gets accumulated into the next number in the sequence. But the moment the sequence reaches three digits, suddenly the third power of each consecutive new base comes into play. That causes four digit numbers to be reached even faster, and then it explodes.

[@WRSomsky]

One oddity w/ a "base computation" (a sub b) is that 'a' *isn't* really a numerical value, but a character string. If you do a top-down, you're constantly having these "represent in base ten" conversions.

[@Vgamer311]

I don’t think this was addressed (or I just missed it) but in the sequence 10 9 8 7... With parentheses starting at the top, it’s not even possible to have an infinite sequence because before long the number being operated on will contain digits not defined in the base being converted to. It’s like saying 5 base 2.

We can deal only with the start number: 1 and 0 ; and 1 and 0 since it is a two dimension espace this two pars give us a base. I ask: is there a periodic sequence F(a, b) for some a and b? exemple: a = 1 and b = -1. So, F(1, -1) = 1, 0, 1, -1, 2, -3, 5, -8. 13, -21, ..... is there a sequence going to infinity and another one going to minus infinity?
