❤ Count the letters into Words ★★★★★

[Anayomex]

To truly dominate world numbers aren't enough so we shall start counting letters. :)

• We shall use English alphabet

  A  B  C  D  E  F  G  H  I  J  K  L  M  N  O  P  Q  R  S  T  U  V  W  X  Y  Z

• Lowercase or Uppercase
• Counting should be in alphabetical order

Example:

A
B
C
.........

Y
Z
AA
AB
..........

AY
AZ
BA
BB
....................

We are counting all possible combinations, to reach word with 3 letters (AAA) is needed 703 posts, for word with 4 letters (AAAA) is needed 18.279 posts, for word with 5 letters (AAAAA) is needed 475.255 posts and for word with 6 letters (AAAAAA) is needed 12.356.631 posts.


NOW we shall begin!

In general isn't it best to have some kind of goal, so there can be a winner or something? Otherwise this is just a spam thread. :P

it would be a little shy of half a million (26^4 + 1).

Here [mention=67840]pichu[/mention], I can show you with a quick example: You will be more familiar with base 10 (numbers 0-9). If you have a 1 digit word, there are 10 possibilities (0-9), if you have a 2 digit word, you get 10*10 for 100 possibilities (0-99). Going like this, if you want a 5 digit number, it will be 10*10*10*10, plus one more. That is 10^4 + 1, or 9999 + 1.
Apply this to base 26 (our letters), and you get 26^4 + 1, or 456977 entries to make a 5 letter sequence.

Ugh, how did I start from there and end up where I was...
1 in the morning might not be the optimal time to do math after all

It also helps that I just finished a course where combinatorics was a sub-topic, so all of this is pretty fresh in my mind. :P
