AI Thread Summary
The number sequence presented includes values 1244, 114448, 12818176, 205090816, and 1729, which are identified as outputs of a specific function f:N->N. The function is defined to be zero for all inputs except for the first five, which correspond to the given sequence. The discussion highlights that 1729 is the fifth value in this sequence. The mathematical breakdown of 1729 involves its prime factorization, showing it as 2^2 * 311 * 1. The conversation centers around the significance of these values in relation to the defined function.

And why do you think it is 1729?
 


Obviously it's the fifth value of the function f:N->N which is 0 everywhere except for 1 through 5, which have the values (resp.) 1244, 114448, 12818176, 205090816 and 1729.
