I am a layperson but... You could try writing out an addition table and a multiplication table and see if you can find patterns and differences (you can). The Sieve of Eratosthenes is good. I asked ChatGPT what branch of mathematics high sc

I asked somewhere here about the algorithm for the position of the dots and got an answer (can I link directly to a post?) below. Putting things on a circle sounds like a good way to do it but it sort of precludes special arrangement for sp

Increasing that by 20% would be 46 seats more. So all this to take in around 50-230 pounds (or dollars, whatever) per flight? I wonder, if they added 10 rows of these that would only be 4 seats per row.

I was wearing out jeans in a month or less and started buying Carhartt pants and it was much better. If I was working as much on my knees as I used to I would also try sewing patches on the knees.

I suspect it is more like he promised more coal and saying something like “They can fuel it with anything they want, and they may have coal as a backup — good, clean coal,” is his way of making good on the promise.
