== there are no 9-smooth numbers? ==
From the task description, second sentence:
<blockquote>The n (when using it in the expression n-smooth is always prime, there are no 9-smooth numbers.</blockquote>
I don't know, [[wp:Smooth_number#Definition|Wikipedia: Smooth number]] in the Definition section, paragraph 3, sentence 3 seems to directly contradict that.
<blockquote>Usually B is prime, but composite numbers are permitted as well.</blockquote>
Ok, they use B rather than N but there isn't anything special about B; that is just the indeterminate they used. (Also, that sentence seems to be missing a closing parenthesis.) --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat|talk]]) 22:15, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
