Counting Polydivisible Numbers
We can find the actual values of F(n) by counting the number of polydivisible numbers with a given length :
| Length n | F(n) | Estimate of F(n) | Length n | F(n) | Estimate of F(n) | Length n | F(n) | Estimate of F(n) | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 9 | 9 | 11 | 2225 | 2255 | 21 | 18 | 17 | ||
| 2 | 45 | 45 | 12 | 2041 | 1879 | 22 | 12 | 8 | ||

Famous quotes containing the words counting and/or numbers:
“What culture lacks is the taste for anonymous, innumerable germination. Culture is smitten with counting and measuring; it feels out of place and uncomfortable with the innumerable; its efforts tend, on the contrary, to limit the numbers in all domains; it tries to count on its fingers.”
—Jean Dubuffet (19011985)
“The land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.”
—Bible: Hebrew Numbers 35:33.
