Goldbach decomposition

Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 1496, here are decompositions:

  • 3 + 1493 = 1496
  • 7 + 1489 = 1496
  • 13 + 1483 = 1496
  • 37 + 1459 = 1496
  • 43 + 1453 = 1496
  • 67 + 1429 = 1496
  • 73 + 1423 = 1496
  • 97 + 1399 = 1496

Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.

  • Concert pitch (A4 = 440 Hz): F♯6 (1480 Hz, +19¢)
  • Scientific pitch (C4 = 256 Hz): G6 (1534.3 Hz, -44¢)
  • Baroque pitch (A4 = 415 Hz): G6 (1478.9 Hz, +20¢)
Position in π

The digit sequence 1496 first appears in π at position 5,111 of the decimal expansion (the 5,111ordinal-suffix:th digit after the integer 3).

Search range: the first 1,000,000 fractional digits of π. Any 6-digit-or-shorter string is virtually guaranteed to appear in there — the more interesting signal is the position.
