In mathematics, a Mersenne number, named after Marin Mersenne (a French monk who began the study of these numbers in the early 17th century), is a positive integer that is one less than a power of two
La conjecture de Syracuse s’énonce ainsi : quel que soit le nombre que l’on choisisse au départ, on finira par tomber sur 1.
L’énoncé de la conjecturePrenez un nombre entier positif, et appliquez lui le traitement suivant :
s’il est pair, vous le divisez par 2;s’il est impair, vous le multipliez par 3 et vous ajoutez 1.Vous obtenez alors un nouveau nombre, sur lequel vous répétez la procédure. Et ainsi de suite, pour fabriquer une séquence de nombres.Mettons que je parte du nombre 7, voici la séquence que j’obtiens :7,22,11,34,17,52,26,13,40,20,10,5,15,16,8,4,2,1,4,2,1,4,2,1,…

Robert Recorde (c. 1510 – 1558) was a Welsh physician and mathematician. He introduced the "equals" sign (=) in 1557.
Goldbach's conjecture is one of the oldest unsolved problems in number theory and in all of mathematics. It states: Every even integer greater than 2 can be written as the sum of two primes.
In number theory, Fermat's Last Theorem states that no three positive integers a, b, and c can satisfy the equation a^n + b^n = c^n for any integer value of n greater than two
