Talk:Narcissistic decimal number
task clarification
According to this task's link to Wolfram MathWorld (TM), a narcissistic number is an N-digit number whose ...
The first narcissistic number is 0 (zero).
According to OEIS (The On-line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (R)), the first narcissistic number is 0 (zero).
This would change what numbers are listed when displaying 25 narcissistic numbers.
I would prefer mentioning that narcissistic numbers are non-negative integers. After all, 15.3 is a decimal number.
Also, for those searching for Armstrong numbers, maybe a note saying:
Narcissistic numbers are also known as:
- Armstrong numbers
- perfect digital invariant (Madachy 1979)
- plus perfect numbers (Hardy 1993)
Narcissistic numbers are similar to powerful numbers.  : Powerful are numbers that are equal to some fixed (integer) power of their digits.
The list of narcissistic numbers is finite (88).
