But why stop with 161; cf(phi) is also a palindrome.
Harmony and balance will cost you 2400 euros.
Smaller amounts of harmony and balance are denoted by "Tau" and cost you only 900 euros.
So, for which bases is phi a palindrome for the first 3 digits?
If phi is truncated to 3 base-b digits, I get palindromes for bases b=4, 10, 26, etc.: (the second number is ln(b), so it appears that the sequence is growing logarithmically) b= 4 1.386294361119891 b= 10 2.302585092994046 b= 26 3.258096538021482 b= 68 4.219507705176107 b= 178 5.181783550292085 b= 466 6.144185634125646 b= 1220 7.106606137727303 b= 3194 8.069029328774958 b= 8362 9.03145291191651 b= 21892 9.993876552263808 b= 57314 10.95630020095731
