Unique Properties of 376
- 376 is the smallest three-digit automorphic number
Rare Properties of 376
The number n is called an automorphic number if (the decimal expansion of) n2 ends with n. These numbers are also called curious.
It is curious, how for a k-digit automorphic number n there is another automorphic number -- 10k + 1 - n. For this to work with n=1, you have to treat 1 as a zero-digit number.
Common Properties of 376
A positive integer greater than 1 that is not prime is called composite.
Composite numbers are opposite to prime numbers.
The number n is deficient if the sum of all its positive divisors except itself is less than n.
Compare with perfect and abundant numbers.
A number is even if it is divisible by 2.
Numbers that are not even are odd. Compare with another pair -- evil and odious numbers.
One can take the sum of the squares of the digits of a number. Those numbers are happy for which iterating this operation eventually leads to 1.
The number n is odious if it has an odd number of 1's in its binary expansion.
Guess what evil numbers are.
