re(2): computer solution for integers and primes -- now palindromes Comment 3 of 3 |
(In reply to re: computer solution for integers and primes -- now palindromes by Charlie)

In case 8 is too trivial to count as a palindrome, 1^(5/6)+7^(8/4)+9^(3/2) = 77. Then there's the indisputable 1^(2/5)+7^(6/3)+9^(8/4) = 131.
