Number Three

A street name for Heroin free-base (often looks like a light-brown powder), the often abused illegal narcotic. It can be smoked.

The number comes from the steps of purification until turning heroin into a salt (Number Four, that is).
Mostly used in Europe.

I mixed my Number Three with citric acid in order to turn it into a water-soluble salt for injecting.

Numbers 31

Wait... The Jewish guy who is better than anyone at CNN... He's going to cite the passage in the bible where God... Tells his followers... To kill all of the men.... And all of the women who have known a man... And to capture all of little girls as spoils...

Hym 😨 "Did he just cite numbers 31!? I mean... You see the irony there, right? Am I the only one who sees it? I am? Oh... Well, no, see... I mean, you SEE the irony there? Number 31? THAT is the passage from the bible you want to quote there? Your entire position was 'Hamas are animals! The Jews would NEVER do the thing that Hamas is doing... Which is murder and kidnap children.... Like in Numbers 31... Where God tells them to do that... And then they do exactly that...' I mean, do you see the irony there? That you chose THAT PASSAGE to quote? You could have chose LITERALLY any other part of the bible! But you chose the 'Murder and kidnapping' part to quote... THERE, like, TODAY... Just now... Wh... Why?"

General number field sieve

The General Number Field Sieve (which is informally 2/3 of the way towards being polynomial in the number of digits (but is still exponential)) is the best known way to factor large integers, in that it scales the best for very large numbers. We're talking like 150 or more digits. And stop reading urban-dictionary and go ask google or something you nerd (just like me ;3) see also: "Special Number Field Sieve" (not on here!)

For numbers with 150+ digits, if you're not going to use the GNFS (General number field sieve), then tbh just don't bother.

Graham's Number

This number is so purely indescribably large, that no mind in a fzgargagoltriplex years could fathom purely how monstrously large this number is. It may as well be infinity!
Here’s references for purely how large the number is:

(For Reference, on the basic scale, from addition to beyond decation.)
Level 1 - Addition; example 10+10 = 1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1 = 20
Level 2 - Multiplication; example 10*10 (or 10x10) (or 10•10) = 10+10+10+10+10+10+10+10+10+10 = 100
Level 3 - Triation; example 10^10 = 10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10 = 10,000,000,000
Level 4 - Tetration; example 10^^10 = 10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10
Level 5 - Pentation; example 10^^^10 = 10^^10^^10^^10^^10^^10^^10^^10^^10^^10
Level 6 - Hexation; example 10^^^^10
- Now we use: 10{n}10, n represents the amount of ^'s in the number.
Level 7 - Heptation; example 10^^^^^10 (or 10{5}10)
Level 8 - Octation; example 10^^^^^^10 (or 10{6}10)
Level 9 - Ennation; example 10^^^^^^^10 (or 10{7}10)
Level 10 - Decation; example 10^^^^^^^^10 (or 10{8}10)
- Now we get to 10{10{n}10}10 numbers.
10{10{10}10}10
10{10{10{10}10}10}10
10{{1}}10 = 10{10{10{10…(10*){10}…(10*)10}10}10}10
With operator notation (which was just used) we can go further, but that’s all we need to know for graham’s number.

Without further ado, here’s the definition using that system.
G0 = 3{4}3
G1 = 3{3{4}3}3
G2 = 3{3{3{4}3}3}3
G3 = 3{3{3{3{4}3}3}3}3
…
G64 = 3{3{3{3{3…(65*){4}…(65*)3}3}3}3}3 or Graham's Number

Person 1: Hey, Person 2!
Person 2: What is it?
Person 1: Did you know that there’s a number called Graham's Number, and it’s a really large number and-
Person Graham's Number: Did someone say my name?
