Has period 12. %C A061462 { Bell(n) mod 8 } is periodic with period 24, the period being (1 1 2 5 7 4 3 5 4 3 7 2 5 5 2 1 3 4 7 1 4 7 3 2). Hence the highest power of 2 dividing a Bell number is 4. - David W. Wilson (davidwwilson(AT)comcast.net), Jun 29, 2001 %D A061462 W. F. Lunnon, P. A. B. Pleasants and N. M.
