Tettro

Visualization of tettro using exponentiation

Tettro is equal to s(4,4,3) in strong array notation.[1] The term was coined by Wikia user Hyp cos. It can be represented in up-arrow notation as \(4\uparrow\uparrow\uparrow4\) (4 pentated to 4). It is approximately 10↑↑10↑↑1010154.

This number is also equal to s(4,2,4) and s(4,3,1,2).

Etymology[]

The name of this number is based on the word "tetra" and "tri" (Greek for 4 and 3), meaning a base-4 number, generated using hyper-3 operation based on exponentiation.

Computation[]

Tettro can be computed in the following process:

  • \(f(1)=4\)
  • \(f(2)=4^4=256\)
  • \(f(3)=4^{4^4}\approx1.3408\times10^{154}\)
  • \(f(4)=4^{4^{4^4}}\), a.k.a. tetbo
  • etc.
  • Tettro equals \(f(f(f(4)))\).
