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 | ||
| 3 | 150 | 150 | 13 | 1575 | 1445 | 23 | 6 | 3 | ||

Famous quotes containing the words counting and/or numbers:
“Love is sinister,
is mean to us in separation;
makes our thin bodies thinner.
This fellow Death
lacks mercy
and is good at counting our days.
And Master,
you, too, are subject
to the plague of jealousy
so think:
how could womenfolk,
soft as sprouts,
live like this?”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
“... there are persons who seem to have overcome obstacles and by character and perseverance to have risen to the top. But we have no record of the numbers of able persons who fall by the wayside, persons who, with enough encouragement and opportunity, might make great contributions.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877?)
