On Hardy's Apology Numbers

arXiv:2008.08187 · doi:10.22059/JAC.2020.79248

Abstract

Twelve well known `Recreational' numbers are generalized and classified in three generalized types Hardy, Dudeney, and Wells. A novel proof method to limit the search for the numbers is exemplified for each of the types. Combinatorial operators are defined to ease programming the search.
