The Perplexing Patterns of Palindromic Numbers

[@eleanorblake697]

I like your explanation of why 11 is the only prime palindrome with an even number of digits. Hope your channel keeps growing!

[@mjohnson2807]

Yeah had a mind explosion moment there 🤯. Really cool

[@noahhorowitz2506]

As someone studying to be a math teacher, I love your pedagogy. Pure enthusiasm for mathematics.

[@sarthakgupta1853]

Came here from the bonus channel and have to say that I loved the vid

[@Ravenishish]

So fun fact, if you flip the word palindromes you get semordinlap which is a word that describes words and phrases that make other words and phrases when reversed. Like the word Star is Rats backwards. Or Diva and Avid. The other word for that which I know is Heteropalindromes.

I have to say. Your channel is really underrated. I hope it grows.

Happy to have found you! Your energy combined with the fact density in this video is definitly something to behold!!!

[@NoOffenseAnimation]

5:24 I noticed that the n^2, n^3 and n^4 of 11 are all rows in Pascal's triangle, n^5 breaks the very short pattern

[@karlpoppins]

I thought the very same thing! If it is true that these "hollow elevens" form Pascal's triangles when raised to an mth power then it makes sense that at m>4 we stop getting palindromes, since two-digit numbers start creeping in. In fact I'm fairly certain I saw 10s on the m=5 case.

[@wyboo2019]

n^5 only kind of breaks the pattern. if you expand 11^5=(10+1)^5 you get: 11^5=10^5+5*10^4+10*10^3+10*10^2+5*10^1+1*10^0 which is the fifth row of Pascal's Triangle. the problem arises with the fact that we're working in base 10, which only has single-digit representations of numbers up to 9 the reason 11^n gives the nth row of pascal's triangle is due to the nth row and kth element of pascal's triangle is nCk, the binomial coefficient "n choose k," and by the binomial theorem: 11^n=(10+1)^n=nC0*10^n*1^0+nC1*10^(n-1)*1^1+nC2*10^(n-2)*1^2+... and notice that 1^k=1 for all integers k, so it just ends up being: 11^n=(nC0)10^n+(nC1)10^(n-1)+(nC2)10^(n-2)+... which is clearly just the 'decimal expansion' of the nth row of Pascal's Triangle, assuming nCk

[@extrasauceontop]

This has to be my favorite new channel. Please keep uploading. I've binged about everything now

[@Gunbudder]

2:15 my favorite palindrome is still: a man; a plan; a canal; panama.

[@Lugmillord]

I just subscribed like 30 minutes ago and your sub count has increased from 1580 to 1610 in that time. Your tetration video is a banger indeed. I wish you good fortune for the future. :) Your energy is amazing! Edit: wow, 1 day later and you are at 3670 subs. Onto a bright future ;)

[@gabrielchavez173]

I'm glad the youtube algorithm brought me to this channel! Maybe in the future you could include any references you used in the description for further reading? I feel like busting some paper out and trying to prove the 196 problem, it's so interesting!

[@thatssokwekwe]

I’m guessing the hollowelevens not being palindromes from the fifth power onward is likely because the coefficients of the binomial expansion of (10^k + 1)^n are from the respective row in Pascal’s triangle, and starting at the 5th row you get coefficients greater than 9, which ruins the symmetry? So that’s why, for example, the 1 in the middle of the entries in of the n=5 column is “off”, because that 1 comes from the 10 coefficient in the 5th row of Pascal’s triangle?

[@13donstalos]

This is a criminally under subbed channel. Keep up the great work dude!

[@zaitzerzazza2830]

Amazing video!!!! Looking forward to the next one😁

[@vj.xoxoxo]

It's cool to learn and enjoy at the same time! ♥

[@MeriaDuck]

12:30 A variant of being divisible by eleven is used in many places, called the 'eleven-test' in Dutch / check digit in English. Eleven in many bases is quite interesting I guess. (edited to self-correct for me thinking the check digit is the same as divisibility by eleven) 16:00 / the 196 case: That's just awesome and a side of mathematics I always love: there are problems you can explain quite easily and still we do not know the answer to.

[@gheffz]

Love your channel, mate. You are quite the entertainer as well as the message. How's the hips eight months later?

[@madeofcake6972]

Hi combo class. I love this channel, great for my brain. :)

[@idiom104]

I am rooting for base 11. Hyper-elevans could make a great turning point for large numbers. And mod 7.

[@hughe29]

I love your shear competence in your subject. So good to watchl.

[@urooshaadnan9794]

next level explanation man

[@MeriaDuck]

Your whiteboard writing is so neat, you could make a font out of it!

[@luna010]

Do the things about all bases (like strictly non-palindromic numbers) also include non-integer, negative, or complex bases?

[@ComboClass]

I just meant the more typical types of bases (integer numbers of base, 2 or greater) but good question, some of the properties might apply to other forms of base too

[@alc202]

"rats live on no evil star" is a good palindrome sentence

[@somedooby]

Amazing video as always

[@ww4830]

This video was awesome!

[@Rich3rd]

It's so interesting to hear there are computers that can handle math at a billion digits in length. I wonder if they hit a computing threshold or if the number of digits is still growing.

[@ComboClass]

Yeah it's interesting. As we get better algorithms and computers (and sometimes just waiting a long time for a computer to keep running a program) we can test larger and larger ranges for counterexamples of stuff, although to fully know about a family of numbers we usually need a proof more than a computation

[@richardgratton7557]

Love your KZbin handle…wish I’d thought of it!😮

[@landsgevaer]

Integers in the programming language python can grow to arbitrary size (until computer memory becomes the problem)...

[@emilyrln]

[@S.G.Wallner]

Palindromes in the wild are some of my favorite moments. Especially the odometer. I end up getting caught up in the gaps between palindromes.

[@sscutoid]

5:41 pascal's triangle????

[@justathought88]

". . . secretly palindromic . . ." Neat turn of phrase, my man.

[@wankachalawea]

6:25 up to n to the forth the pattern seems like pascal's triangle

[@deuterium_oxide7382]

fun fact: while the word palindrome isn't a palindrome, the name for the fear of palindromes (aibohphobia) is

[@imprincesswolfy2565]

8:28 123 in base 12 is a palindrome in base 10 (171) I love it

[@to2podemosaprender630]

In spanish is capicua meaning head and tail..

[@marcosluna8127]

No it’s not, it’s palindromo

[@chrisg3030]

What about partial palindromes, that is a number containing a palindromic sequence of digits even if the whole thing isn't a palindrome? One reason why that could be interesting is that for any even number base, beginning with decimal, the number consisting of all the digits running consecutively from 1 to the top single digit, and the reverse, when divided by that digit seems to contain a palindromic sequence of at least 3 terms. For example in decimal 123456789/9 = 13717421, 987654321/9 = 109739369, containing 717 and 393 respectively. In base12 the corresponding palindromic sequences are B4B and 181, base 14 has B292B and 3C5C3.

[@vyliad]

Of the first 68 hollow elevens (including 11): - Most are divisible by another hollow eleven or 17 - None of them are prime except 11 and 101 - There are some other fascinating patterns when you factor the hollow elevens, like how a surprising amount of them include a factor like 9090909091

[@vyliad]

In fact, all of the hollow elevens with an even number of digits seem to be a number like 9090909091 • 11

[@ofconsciousness]

So cool!

[@jayvaghela9888]

Why this channel is amazing without having any animations or graphs ?

[@justathought88]

It's all his fault!

[@bagelnine9]

(11:00) Fun fact: I once saw the number 103 in a dream. It was the age rating of a movie that my parents were watching on Netflix.

[@kierafrost2550]

I watched this video and saw your comment just 2-3 hours ago. I am now checking a show I might want to see, and it says it’s free for people under 13 and… over 103. What a coincidence, it’s such an oddly specific age limit!

[@Fred-tz7hs]

I want the reversed version for the full palindromic experience. This video is as incomplete as the word "palindromic" isn't even palindromic

[@richardgratton7557]

We should all re-watch this on November 22…😇

[@idiom104]

Sorry but question. If it were possible let j=any variable a/0=x j(a/0)=jx ja/j0=jx You can never multiply any number(j) by (a/0) and also change the zero underneath the divisor to any other number(k). I conjucture that if we can manipulate the zero under the devisor into k allowing that k cannot equal zero, the following statement can be solved. a/0=x

[@david-melekh-ysroel]

According to a friend, the 4th power of a number n is called Tesseract

Fun fact: the name for the fear of palindromes is aibohphobia, which is a palindrome

[@Sugar3Glider]

Base 20 sounds like it would be a great system to use

[@vaheakli4551]

ok, fyi, my favourite palindrome is "оголи жопу пожилого" which translates as "undress ass of aged human"

11² is palindrome and all the zeros you can fit between. 101,1001,10001,100001. Then I think there might be some powers of these that work. Maybe 1001³ is palindrome? * On purpose: didn't check on paper, calculator or watch all of video. Mental guessing from 3 minutes in
