Goldbach decomposition

Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 1506, here are decompositions:

  • 7 + 1499 = 1506
  • 13 + 1493 = 1506
  • 17 + 1489 = 1506
  • 19 + 1487 = 1506
  • 23 + 1483 = 1506
  • 47 + 1459 = 1506
  • 53 + 1453 = 1506
  • 59 + 1447 = 1506

Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.

Musical pitch

Heard as a frequency, 1,506 Hz is closest to:

  • Concert pitch (A4 = 440 Hz): F♯6 (1480 Hz, +30¢)
  • Scientific pitch (C4 = 256 Hz): G6 (1534.3 Hz, -32¢)
  • Baroque pitch (A4 = 415 Hz): G6 (1478.9 Hz, +31¢)
Position in π

The digit sequence 1506 first appears in π at position 1,114 of the decimal expansion (the 1,114ordinal-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.
