This sequence represents the values of the base a such that a^^m, where ^^ indicates tetration or hyper-4 (e.g., 3^^4=3^(3^(3^3))), is characterized by a convergence speed at or above 2 (fast m-adic convergence). Only 26% of the positive integers belong to this list (see A317905).

Formula

For m = 57, m (mod 25) == 7 and 7^^n has a convergence speed greater than 1, since A317905(m = 57) = 3 > 1 and also A317905(m = 7) = 2 > 1.

Comments

It is well known (see Links) that as the hyperexponent of the integer m becomes sufficiently large, the constant convergence speed of m is the number of new stable digits that appear at the end of the result for any further unit increment of the hyperexponent itself, and a sufficient (but not necessary) condition to get this fixed value is to set the hyperexponent equal to m plus 1.

Examples

			If n = 2, m = 7 and so 7^^8 has exactly 2 more stable digits at the end of the result than 7^^7.

The convergence speed of any integer greater than 1 and not divisible by 10 is constant if and only if we are considering an integer tetration and its constant convergence speed is greater than 2 if and only if the tetration base is of the form m + k*1000, for k >= 0, where m is a term.

Examples

			57 is a term since the constant convergence speed of 57 is 3 and (trivially) 57 has no trailing zeros.

Comments

The only positive integers with a constant congruence speed of 1 (see A373387) are necessarily congruent to 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 19, 21, 22, or 23 modulo 25.
Thus, a prime number is characterized by a unit constant congruence speed if and only if it is not congruent to 1, 7, 43, or 49 modulo 50.
As a result, (16*4)% of positive integers have a constant congruence speed of 1, while (16*5)% of primes have a unit constant congruence speed (since the mentioned constraint excludes all the multiples of 5). In the interval (1, 10^4) there are 1229 prime numbers, 982 of whom have a unit constant congruence speed.

Examples

			a(3) = 11 since the 2 and 3 have a unit constant congruence speed, while the constant congruence speed of 5 and 7 equals 2.

Comments

The only positive integers with a constant congruence speed greater than 1 (see A373387) are necessarily congruent to 1, 7, 43, or 49 modulo 50.
As a result, 36% of positive integers have a constant congruence speed of at least 2, while 20% of primes have a constant congruence speed greater than 1. In the interval (1, 10^4), there are 1229 prime numbers, 247 of whom have a constant congruence speed of at least 2.
Moreover, as a consequence of Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progressions, Theorem 3 of "The congruence speed formula" (see Links) proves that, for any given positive integer k, there are infinitely many primes characterized by a constant congruence speed of (exactly) k.

Examples

			a(1) = 5 since 5 is the smallest prime number with a constant congruence speed of at least 2.
