>So the straight path to factorization is to generate (e, n, t) for 1*c and then go to (e, 1, t) and iterate downwards (by lowering t) until you reach the solution record where x is the x that gives the factors of c

Exactly. But if [delta]t is known (or patterns of [delta]t are known) can we then lower t to the proper integer using a known formula? Asking for a friend.

Great diagrams, Teach! Thanks.

>teach, why d_2? Shouldn't they all be sqrt(d) and e?

I was wondering the same thing. Chris did say you could pre-factorize by dividing by 2 until odd. Then you take d and e and repeat until those branches terminate in a factor.

Quick question: is n supposed to be prime too?

>>3729

Checked it out Baker! WTF does it mean, LOL? Found the cool X tho. Check out our tattooed posse…. Teach is in the middle, FYI.

Many Questions:

Can the factor tree help us find (1,c) and (prime)? Or match them to number tree?

Can we factor (1,c) and find primes to match for a and b using the tree?

Can we use factor tree and (e,1) to get what we need?

We need to know the factors AND how to use the grid.

STEP 3. Tree + VQC

Agreed, Baker. I've prayed and continue to pray for the success of our quest. Perhaps our generation will be one of few to see Evil overthrown and defeated in a Great Awakening.

Here's an idea:

Part one ends with finding the GCD of e and d. Kind of a cliffhanger moving into part two.

Part Two: Maybe we should sum the factor tree leaves that match the GCD? Or only sum termination points that are >GCD? Thinking out loud here. Thoughts?

Why did Chris make so much of a point that Pt 1 ends with finding GCD? Must be pretty important for Pt 2?

Hello Lads! Solid idea over here! Lets factor f.

Just looked over my formulas and realized that d of f solves for x in row 1. If we factor Floor(SQRT(abs(f))) we get d and e for f. The d portion solves for x in row one, but the remainder e is still there!

But what about the remainder (e) portion of f? Can this help us bump up our value so that we can solve for x in n>1?

Maybe program anons can run the numbers. I'm working over here but wanted to share now bc my preferred programming language is Excel, lol.

PMA, nice to see you. I feel like I'm in the LOTR at this point. Hero's quest, we're doing the walking in between all the cool parts. Long walk, but maybe we'll get our math asses in shape.

You almost got the 4120 for your post of the earth smoking a bowl, lol. :)

Thanks again AA for planning ahead!

Thought: VQC is further along the road of enlightenment, so he doesn't party for good reason. We disciples, on the other hand, were probably attracted here in part by his self which used to party. You gotta like expanding your mind for this kinda work. Pretty cool that he's doing it sober now. Much respect.

Rules? As in "nature, in order to be ruled, must be obeyed" ?

Dance Of The Cosmos?

Numbers That Grow Like A Tree?

Patterns That Traverse Infinity?

Underlying Order Of The Universe?
