The Anti Primes

During the winter break I saw a video on Numberphile about Antiprimes. This was very exciting for me because I didn't realise it was a real term. Turns out it isn't, they have another cool name for numbers that have lots of factors but one of the Numberphile crew also likes the term Antiprime and that's good enough for me (:

And they confirmed that 360 is one of these numbers.

BIG NUMBERS and a COOL SITE

Thanks to Tom Avent for sharing two Youtube channels I had not seen before, and I like to watch science and maths videos. I spent about an hour looking around.

Here is one to get you started with some big numbers from the good people at ASAP Science:

But wait... there's more...
This is another excellent Youtube channel called FW Thinking

Enjoy! I did (:
