[seqfan] Re: A generalization of "antipodes": primes and highly composite numbers

[Neil Sloane]

Vladimir,

I tried to say this in a pink box comment to A275239, but the OEIS too slow
today

"kind 1" etc is not good English.

I suggest either "type 1" or "class 1". However, these are very common
names.

But even better, how about "of HC class 1" (where HC stands for "Highly
composite")?

"Numbers of HC class 0" ,
"Numbers of HC class 1" ,
etc


Best regards
Neil
