| POWERS OF 101 - PASCALINDROMES | |
|---|---|

The first five consecutive powers of 101 produce palindromes. The next 4 consecutive powers of 101 produce 'quasi-palindromes' in the sense of concatenating several multidigit numbers in reverse order, but not reversing the digits of those individual numbers. In all these powers the numbers in the rows of Pascal's Triangle can be seen in order (with some zeros thrown in here and there so that each number, after the first, occupies a two-digit space), hence the name 'Pa-sca-lindromes'. |
