  • M(α,4) = (α4 − α2)/4
  • M(α,5) = (α5 − α)/5
  • M(α,6) = (α6 − α3 − α2 + α)/6
  • M(α,pn) = (αpn − αpn − 1)/pn for p prime

Famous quotes containing the word values:

    If the Russians have gone too far in subjecting the child and his peer group to conformity to a single set of values imposed by the adult society, perhaps we have reached the point of diminishing returns in allowing excessive autonomy and in failing to utilize the constructive potential of the peer group in developing social responsibility and consideration for others.
    Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)

    When the shingles hissed
    in the rain incendiary,
    other values were revealed to us,
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
