pandigital number
Given a base b integer
n=k∑i=1dibi-1 |
where d1 is the least significant digit and dk is the most significant, and k≥b, if for each -1<m<b there is at least one dx=m among the digits of n, then n is a pandigital number in base b.
The smallest pandigital number in base b is
bb-1+b-1∑d=2db(b-1)-d, |
while the largest (with only one instance of each digit) is
b-1∑d=1dbd. |
There are infinitely many pandigital numbers with more than one instance of one or more digits.
If b is not prime, a pandigital number must have at least b+1 digits to be prime. With k=b for the length of digits of a pandigital number n, it follows from the divisibility rules in that base that (b-1)|n.
Sometimes a number with at least one instance each of the digits 1 through b-1 but no instances of 0 is called a zeroless pandigital number.
