%N A281863 Alternating powers of 60 and 10 times powers of 60.
%C A281863 These numbers are the values for the positions in the Sumerian (and Babylonian) alternating sexagesimal - decimal system (used at least up to  10*60^2 = 36000, but here extended).
%C A281863 For the numbers in this mixed base system see A055643. For the number of symbols needed for representing n see A131650. For the number of digits (including 0) of the representation of n see A282622.
