OBSERVATION 17 – A Comparison of Ending Numbers
The Ending Number Pattern (Today 2019-07-06)
Initially, as is well known and I confirmed to myself, that the ending digit of primes greater or equal to 7 (and including 1), is always 1, 3, 7 or 9. Then I discovered that in the series of Set Saf that these ending digits follow a completely rigid pattern, which equally applies to the odd-composite numbers in the series and are, by the results of my spreadsheets, infinite, as in ‘without end’; as OBSERVATION 5 also see back to OBSERVATION 7.
And these are the starting numbers: –
Uplift | Ending | Gap |
---|---|---|
1 | 1 | 1 |
7 | 7 | 6 |
11 | 1 | 4 |
1 | 3 | 2 |
5 | 7 | 4 |
7 | 9 | 2 |
11 | 3 | 4 |
5 | 9 | 6 |
Look at spreadsheet: – https://www.mediafire.com/file/t4jb6ews48qe995/20190813-list-ending-nos_2nd-try.ods/file
We now count the sequences of the Ending numbers from the first row, numbers 01, 07, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29…..
The Table Compares; Uplift number, Ending number of the Primes and Non-Primes and the Gap between these numbers.
This gives a repeating sequence 1, 7, 1, 3, 7, 9, 3, 9; which if the initial integer sequence is considered, repeats 4 times against the integer ending pattern of 32 sequence units long (not shown in this table).
It seems logical to pursue these patterns further: –
Last Two Ending Digits of the Prime & Odd-Composite Series
The information is arranged starting at the (prime number list) number 1 after these block illustrations, so that the series starts 001, 007, 011 and so on, by adding leading zeros.
The “two ending numbers” sequence is composed of 80 digits being the last 2 ending numbers of any number occurring in the list. The sequence is composed of three lesser sub-sequences of 26 numbers, 28 numbers and another 26 numbers, (refer to post 5, Observation 5).
Three Ending Numbers
“Three ending numbers” require that these 80 numbers are repeated through the blocks ten times, comprising therefore 800 numbers. These sequences per block start with ending numbers 01,07,11. Then the second block starts with 01,03,07 and the last block starts with 03,09,11.
This produces the list of the last three digits in the numbers of the series Set Saf, that repeats regularly through the block (0)001 to (2)999 (block 1 is 800 numbers), then 3001 to 5999 (800 and so on), then 6001 to 8999, 9001 to 11999, 12001 to 14999, 15001 to 17999, 18001 to 20999, 21001 to 23999, 24001 to 26999, 27001 to 29999 (block 10 is 8000 numbers), 30001 to 32999, 33001 to 35999, and so on….
By list number 29999 (non-prime), the sequence of 80 numbers has been repeated 100 times and the sequence of 800 numbers has been repeated 10 times. This block 10 is where the first series of 8000 numbers ends and the next series of 8000 numbers starts. This pattern of 8000 four-ending numbers continues into in five digit numbers.
Looking then at the two ending numbers; this sequence of three sub-sequences totalling 80 numbers occurs once in a block ranging from ###1 to #300. Below, the sub-sequence numbers are separated by | and each repeat of 80 numbers is separated by || The pattern then repeats three times to carry through to number #899. Then an additional sequence (or two sequences) is/are required to bring the pattern in a block of numbers ranging within the parameter limit of 1 to 1000. These numbers comprise of 266 twice and 268 numbers once. So the three blocks below have a layout of 266, 268, 266 numbers, which total 800 numbers.
As far as I can determine the ‘last two digits and last three digits’ sequences are infinitely repeating. The last two digits repeating every 80 numbers in 80 lines and the last three digits repeating every 80 x 10 numbers in 800 lines; that is, there are 10 complete patterns of the sequence in the block 0001 to 2999 and so on.
The first sequence runs 80 numbers three times in this block from 0001 to 0899 (240 numbers), the second from 0901 to 1799 (another 240 numbers), and the third from 1801 to 2699 (another 240). Within the final third of the third block from 2701 to 2999 (the final 80 numbers). A total of 800 numbers ranging through numbers below 1000, then through 1001 to below 2000, then 2001 to below 3000.
Taking the start of the repeating series as integer 1, (0)001), then the whole sequence of three blocks ends with the block-ending-number 2999.
The numbers are as follows (black are primes; red are non-prime-odd-composite ‘prime-factor’ numbers) : –

Ending Four Digits of the Prime & Odd-Composite Series in Five Digit Numbers
It would be logical therefore to project this pattern to the next series of numbers ending in four digits occurring in five-digit numbers, which would be 8000 numbers in 8000 lines. The blocks of numbers would run from 0001 to 9997 (within 0001 to 10000), then 10001 to 19999 (within 10001 to 20000), then 20003 to 29999 (within 20001 to 30000), 30001…..
My conjecture would be that the logical projection of each series is infinite and that the logical increase of ending numbers of 4 digits would be in a five digit number; but containing the previous 3, 2, and 1 number ending patterns. The prime and non-prime-odd-composite 3,2,1 ending patterns will maintain their value of being a prime or odd-composite-non-prime number through out their series pattern. This principal will follow for ending patterns of 5 in a six digit number (1,000,000 to 9,999,999), 6 in a seven digit number (10,000,000 to 99,999,999) and so on, to produce patterns through numbers n104, n105, n106, and so on up through increasing powers; all infinite series where n= Set Saf digits, followed by an exponent of 10.
These are rigid patterns because they are part of Set Saf.
Five Digits of the Prime & Odd-Composite Series
Five digit numbers ending in 4 digits; for example the square of prime 179, producing the odd-composite number 32041.
The ending 4 digits, 2041 (also odd-composite, can be seen occurring in the previous table, as (2)041. The ending 3 digits of this number, i.e. 041 actually occur twice as (0)041 and (2)041 and of course 41 is prime. The ending 2 digits, i.e. 41 occurs 20 times. The ending 1 digit occurs 200 times.
Six Digits of the Prime & Odd-Composite Series
A six digit number ending in 5 digits; for example 132041 (odd-composite), a unique number which is the product of primes 1451, 13, and 7.
The ending 5 digits of this number, i.e. 32041 occur twice as (0)32041 and (1)32041. The ending 4 digits occur 20 times. The ending 3 digits occur 200 times. The ending 2 digits, i.e. 41, occurs 2000 times. The ending 1 digit occurs 20,000 times.
Seven Digits of the Prime & Odd-Composite Series
A seven digit number ending in 6 digits; an example 1332041 (consider (13)32041), a unique number which is the product of primes 2111 and 631; or 1832041 (consider (18)32041), a unique number which is the product of primes 3923 and 467. Therefore the occurrence of the first two 6 digit ending numbers is indicative of the same pattern as previous patterns.
Within Seven Digits
The ending 6 digits occur 2 times. The ending 5 digits occur 20 times. The ending 4 digits occur 200 times. The ending 3 digits occur 2000 times. The ending 2 digits occurs 20000 times. The ending 1 digit occurs 200,000 times.
While I believe that these series are typically expanding and expandable over the pattern of numbers in the spreadsheet; i.e. in greater and greater series up through 8, 9, 10 digit numbers and so on, and that this pattern has regularity; I cannot prove it. The spreadsheet needs to be substantially larger for a visual check, which is not possible with this computer’s capabilities or my time and poor little brain.
The Principal of Ending Numbers
The principal is the important issue. This principal is the fact that these series through Set Saf are completely regular, logical, and repetitive. So the numbers are predictable. The position of the primes within each field of numbers; as an example across the spreadsheet, – say the ‘Ending Seven Digits of the Prime & Odd-Composite Series’; are only predictable because they have already been defined within the fields of numbers up to the end of the previous sequence – ‘Ending Six Digits of the Prime & Odd-Composite Series’. But on analysis of course will not include as predictable any of the primes newly occurring within the ‘Ending Seven Digits of the Prime & Odd-Composite Series’.

Ending Numbers in Eq2
Whilst looking at ending number patterns, another sequence manifests itself in the application of Eq2 (Equation 2 of Sandor Kristyans Paper). I have uploaded a revised copy of spreadsheet – 20211007-PnP-IntegerEnding Numbers.ods – into my MediaFire account. Please use the link below.
Click or paste – https://www.mediafire.com/file/qmdzh03zsblb3nm/20211007-PnP-IntegerEndingNos-2.ods/file
This spreadsheet is a doctored copy of the 7th spreadsheet in the Ratio series of spreadsheets. The number of rows is only 5000 and you need to select Sheet S2.
In this Sheet (S2), I have tested the application of the Integer Series for determining the results of Eq2; n = 2(2ab+a+b)+1 where a>b; which in spreadsheet speak, the equation is written: =IF(introw>=intcol,SUM(2*(2*((introw)*(intcol))+introw+intcol)+1),””) where ‘intcol’ = a and ‘introw’ = b. (See Observation 11).
To construct the Integer Series which constructs the visual application of Eq2, it is necessary to use the following simple formula on the entire list of primes and non-prime odd-composites which occur in Set Saf , which have been formed by the application of ‘My Logical Process’ formula, explained at the very beginning of these blogs for the paper “Primes and Non Prime Patterns”.
Simple Formula
Take one starting value from the list, choosing anywhere to start. Subtract 1 and divide by 2. This results in the value for the integer required for the values of ‘a’ and ‘b’ in the equation, and called ‘introw’ and ‘intcol’ in the spreadsheet formula.
As I said earlier, I am using one of the Ratio spreadsheets cut down to just 5000 rows to do this. Prime and odd-composite numbers start at 7874933 which is the 2,099,992nd number in the spreadsheet series.
On examining these numbers I noticed yet another repeating sequence of ending numbers which is 16 digits long. These are the ending numbers of the integers themselves. The series runs as 3,5,6,8,9,1,4,5, and then 8,0,1,3,4,6,9,0, and repeats thereafter without fail. (16 number sequence).
In Observation 11, I listed the Integer Sequence 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 14, 15, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 26, 29, 30, 33, ….. and illustrated a table of values that relate back to the Gap sequence 6,2,6,4,2,4,2,4, but divided by 2 thus; 3,1,3,2,1,2,1,2.
This developed the table which follows in this Observation 11. Please refer back to the post number 11 in this series. This pattern of integers then produces a spreadsheet table with only the non-primes odd-composite numbers that are complementary to the prime numbers.
When comparing the ending numbers with the actual numbers from the series, it is clear that 16 ending number sequence repeats endlessly providing a rigid format for the infinite series. The difference between eight numbers and the ninth number of the next next eight numbers in the sequence is always 15.
3937473 | 3937475 | 3937476 | 3937478 | 3937479 | 3937481 | 3937484 | 3937485 | 3937488 | 3937490 | 3937491 | 3937493 | 3937494 | 3937496 | 3937499 | 3937500 |
One can conclude, as with all these regular patterns in this series of numbers that the linking patterns are the “mesenteric” links through the maths associated with primes and non-prime complementarity. Or they are maps through a landscape, however they are without a reference enabling overall navigation at the moment.
