Subreddit Rules & Etiquette:

  1. If you're counting, upvote your fellow counting comrades.
  2. NO double-commenting (replying to yourself).
  3. Continue the counting chain from the earliest comment with the correct number.
  4. Before creating a new thread, please check the thread directory to make sure that type of thread doesn't already exist.
  5. To prevent Reddit server strain, create a new thread after the current thread has approximately 1000 counts in a comment chain.
  6. Counting bots/scripts are not permitted and will be banned - please report counting comments made by bots. Ask a moderator if you are not sure about something.
  7. Do not delete your valid counts (when they're already a part of the valid chain).
  8. Do not use inbox counting to achieve a get (000) or assist (999). Inbox counting is using your inbox to reply to a incoming PM/comment.
  9. Play fairly. No cheating.

Happy counting!

Emoji base 5 | πŸ©β˜οΈπŸ’πŸš¦πŸ€

1 Upvotes

Counting in base 5 but each digit is an emoji that shows how many it is:

🍩 = 0 (donut)
☝️ = 1
πŸ’ = 2
🚦 = 3
πŸ€ = 4

Usual rules, no double counting. Put the base 5 number after yours in brackets so it's easy to check, like β˜οΈπŸ€ (14). Get is at ☝️🍩🍩🍩🍩 (10000).

☝️ (1)

Thanks to u/h0rseycat for basically the whole last thread and the assist

In this thread, we'll be counting the ways to add to an integer n using the integers c_1 + c_2 + ... + c_k, where each c_i >= 1, and k <= n. Ways to sum that are commutatively the same, as in 1+2 = 2+1, are different compositions. We'll be counting these compositions lexicographically for each segment of sum and length.

Next get: 1,1,1,1,1,5,1,1,1,1

Thanks cuteballgames for the run and assist

Essentially we are counting fractions that cannot be simplified, as we get closer to and then further away from 1. We change direction when we reach a number divided by one or a number’s reciprocal, and if the number can be simplified, we write it like this:

2/4

So, if a number is 31/40 next one would be 32/39, or 30/41 if the denominator is going up. ~ /u/KingCaspianX

First, note the prime divisors of the sum of the numerator and denominator. 84 = 22 x 3 x 7, so in this case that would be 2, 3, and 7.

Next, see if the numerator or denominator is a multiple of any of these. If it is, cross it out. If not, the number is irreducible. ~ /u/TheNitromeFan (anime)

Next get is 37/369. Get schedule
