Today, having turned 26906 days old, I discovered that this number has a connection with so-called Woodall primes that are simply Woodall numbers that are prime. So what characterises a Woodall number? To quote from this source:
In number theory, a Woodall number
Woodall numbers that are also prime numbers are called Woodall primes; the first few exponentsfor which the corresponding Woodall numbers are prime are 2, 3, 6, 30, 75, 81, 115, 123, 249, 362, 384, ... (sequence A002234 in the OEIS); the Woodall primes themselves begin with 7, 23, 383, 32212254719, ... (sequence A050918 in the OEIS) ... almost all Woodall numbers are composite. It is an open problem whether there are infinitely many Woodall primes. As of October 2018, the largest known Woodall prime is . It has 5,122,515 digits and was found by Diego Bertolotti in March 2018 in the distributed computing project PrimeGrid.
26906 however, to return to my diurnal age, arises in the context of so-called Generalized Woodall Numbers. These numbers are defined thus:
A generalized Woodall number base b is defined to be a number of the form, where if a prime can be written in this form, it is then called a generalized Woodall prime.
The number associated with my diurnal age turns out to be a member of OEIS A299378:
A299378 | Numbers |
Thus it can be seen that 26906 belongs to those exponents for which the generalized Woodall numbers
2, 10, 14, 2312, 16718, 26906, 27512, 41260, 45432, 162454, 217606
Thus
