Well I found a neat UFO sound with kids laughing at the end and I use that when you plug or unplug your printer or memory stick into the USB port. And I use a different clang than usual for most of the dings and startup songs and logoff tunes, the clang is short and sweet.

That UFO sound is not part of the ones that come with XP. At least I do not think so.

John E. Franklin · 2012-01-24 10:16:06

Well I found it on my computer and I don't know if it came with some update download or what or if Circuit City put it there before we got the PC.

Does the wav. file have a name?

John E. Franklin · 2012-01-24 10:47:19

Yes, utopia~1.wav and has a date of 7/21/2001 on it, though the computer was purchased in 2004.

Hi John E. Franklin;

They claim it originally came with Windows 98/95 and was left out on XP.

John E. Franklin · 2012-01-24 10:52:12

interesting also is that our pc had a spreadsheet on it that we did not purchase I found, that looked like it was installed on it a few months before we bought the PC from Circuit City.

bobbym · 2012-01-24 10:53:41

That is interesting. Sometimes certain manufacturers put some software on. I know that HP does.

I did a loop of the last 3 digits of powers of 2 with my power residue program, I used the non-prime # of 1000 for the "mod" amount. It looped around after it hit 504 I think and then went 008, yeah that makes sense, and the loop after that is always 100 long, curiously. But 1, 2, and 4 never occur in the form of 001, 002, or 004. Because the 504 jumps to 008 and then 016, 032, etc... Then I found a webpage dedicated to the powers of 2, and it verified what I had found out with my program. That was worthwhile.

bobbym · 2012-01-24 11:02:57

Sometimes the patterns are a little erratic as to where they occur and for how long.

John E. Franklin · 2012-01-24 11:04:42

Hmmm... let me revisit that program for a second or two...

bobbym · 2012-01-24 11:10:39

I am not sure about this but you will not get the maximum period unless you use a prime exponent.

John E. Franklin · 2012-01-24 11:12:10

Okay just wanted to see the numbers better so I numbered them.
2^3 = 8
2^103 ends in 008
2^203 ends in 008
2^303 ends in 008
...
2^1003 ends in 008
All the 99 other numbers keep repeating in a specific order, since you are just doubling the last 3 digits.

John E. Franklin · 2012-01-24 11:14:04

Yes, I've noticed that in 10's of examples so far. Only the primes will repeat to prime -1 in length.
The other numbers seem to repeat sooner, an integral fraction I think of the nonprime number of interest.

bobbym · 2012-01-24 11:14:50

You used a mod 1000 which is not prime, that may be the reason for a periodicity of 100.

John E. Franklin · 2012-01-24 11:15:59

I just noticed that the non-primes don't have the minus one in the equation, just a fraction of the non-prime. Weird.
But the whole multiplying thing brings you visually to the next dimension higher at each multiplying, whatever that adds to it.
But its complicated.

bobbym · 2012-01-24 11:18:59

You mean in fermats little theorem, that formula?

John E. Franklin · 2012-01-24 11:26:07

Yeah, well I think they are one and the same, but I was talking about my program in BASIC.
Hey is 1001 prime, I just did loops with multipliers of 2, 3, 4, 5 and still no good...
My book is upstairs.

bobbym · 2012-01-24 11:27:37

Hi;

It is divisible by 7 , 11 and 13.

John E. Franklin · 2012-01-24 11:28:30

Oh, my book lists 997 and 1009 as the only primes that surround 1000 or 1001, so 1001 is non-prime.
Maybe I should factor it.

John E. Franklin · 2012-01-24 11:29:30

91 x 11 = 910 + 91 = 1001, yup.

bobbym · 2012-01-24 11:33:26

I can get some primes for you.

bobbym · 2012-01-24 11:34:05

Hi John;

1009 is prime, try that.

John E. Franklin · 2012-01-24 12:00:05

Yes I tried 1009 with my BASIC program.
I tried whole numbers from 2, 3, 4, ... 9, 10, and then 11 worked, just like my book uses 11 for the multiplier to get to the next number in the loop. For all the numbers 2 to 10, it repeated at some fraction of 1008, sometimes 12 times smaller, or 6, or maybe others.

bobbym · 2012-01-24 12:02:19

Surprised about 5 because 5 an 1008 are co prime.
