(labos(AT)ana.sote.hu), Jan 21 2002 %C A050922 Comments from T. D. Noe, Jan 29 2009 (Start): That these two definitions give the same sequence follows from the fact (stated as a formula in A001317) that A001317(n) is the product of Fermat numbers F(i) according to which bits of n are set. %C A050922 For instance, for n=41, the binary representation of n is 101001, which has bits 0, 3 and 5 set. A001317(n) = 3311419785987 = 3*257*4294967297 = F(0)*F(3)*F(5). %C A050922 This factorization also explains why the "first 31 numbers give odd-sided constructible polygons". I think Hewgill first noticed this factorization. (End) %D A050922 M. Aigner and G. M. Ziegler, Proofs from The Book, Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 2nd. ed., 2001; see p. 3. %H A050922 J.
