Pattern 88 The Three Noun-Position Sums Followed by 0–23–73 in π

Why this pattern matters

This pattern uses the same three nouns as Patterns 86 and 87, but here it uses their Hebrew alphabet-position sums rather than their traditional values or word positions.

Their concatenated position sums occur in π followed by 0–23–73. The number 23 is shared by words 2 and 4, which surround word 3 in the verse. The combined traditional values and alphabet-position sums of these three consecutive words equal 777.

Indexing note: Java reports zero-based index 2186823. Counting the first digit in the data file as position 1 gives position 2186824. The result depends on using the same π file format.

How this pattern is measured

The nouns occur at word positions 3, 5, and 7. Their Hebrew alphabet-position sums are:

Word 3 = 41
Word 5 = 62
Word 7 = 44

Concatenating these totals in their original order produces:

41 | 62 | 44 = 416244

The program finds the first occurrence of this number in the tested π file. It then skips the first following digit, which is 0, and tests whether the next four digits are 2373.

The program separately adds both the traditional values and alphabet-position sums of words 2, 3, and 4.

First occurrence in π

The supplied output finds the first occurrence of 416244 at zero-based index 2186823, which is conventional one-based position 2186824.

The complete 20-digit excerpt printed by the program is:

41624402373141798947

After the intervening zero, the next four digits are:

23 | 73

The number 23 is the Hebrew alphabet-position sum of both word 2 and word 4. The number 73 is the reverse of 37.

The 777 calculation

For words 2, 3, and 4, the traditional Hebrew values are:

203 + 86 + 401 = 690

Their Hebrew alphabet-position sums are:

23 + 41 + 23 = 87

Combining the two totals gives:

690 + 87 = 777

The result also factors as: 777 = 3 × 7 × 37.

Pi significant.

Probability note

No independent probability is assigned on this page. The occurrence and arithmetic are reproducible, but a valid chance estimate would require the concatenation rule, the skipped digit, the four tested digits, and the 777 calculation to be specified in advance and applied to comparable controls.

This page uses the probability notation provided in the original pattern sequence.
