  Palindromic prime - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A palindromic prime is a prime number that is also a palindromic number.
Palindromicity depends on the base of the numbering system and its writing conventions, while primality is independent of such concerns.
It's possible that a triply palindromic prime in base 10 may be also be palindromic in another base, such as base 2, but it would be highly remarkable if it was also a triply palindromic prime in that base as well.

 Palindromic number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term palindromic is derived from palindrome, which refers to a word like rotor that remains unchanged under reversal of its letters.
Although palindromic numbers are most often considered in the decimal system, the concept of palindromicity can be applied to the natural numbers in any numeral system.
All numbers in base 10 with one digit {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9} are palindromic ones.

The beastly palindromic prime number 16661 is such a number, since it is the 1928'th prime, and 1 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 1 = 1 + 9 + 2 + 8.

Since the center numbers are under 2^12 (n=6 in the formulas for the pattern), I found 8 more sets of these for n = 7 to 14, and an n=15 repetition for the center number 27*(2^n+1) case.
The other two numbers required to complete the magic square are 15 and 39 for the 27 case, and 27 and 39 for the 33 case.
The numbers required to complete the square are 99 and 159, and 159 is not a palindrome in base 2, nor will it be when multiplied by 2^n+1, so this pattern does not yield any solutions for these edges.

 Palindromic Sums
For numbers from 2 to 99, we need to reverse each number, add it to the original and then check if the result is a palindrome.
To test if a number is a palindrome, we'll convert it to a string, pad it to the to the left with as many zeros as are at the end, and then test if it is a palindrome.
Finally, to count the number of steps, we can make a recursive call in the "reverse, sum and test" procedure, passing each sum as the input to the next call until a palindrome is found or the numbers get too large to check.

 The palindromic number conjecture: don't try this!
A palindrome in an expression--literal or numerical--which reads the same backwards as forwards, as in "Madam I'm Adam" and 12321.
If this number is not a palindrome, then repeat with this number: 1069 + 9601 = 10670.
Also note that if you experiment with large numbers, the sums that fail to be palindromic generally come close in the sense that symmetrically located digits are usually very close (e.g., 7 and 8).

The nth triangular number is given by the formula T(n) = (n)(n+1)/2, and is equal to the sum of the numbers from 1 to n.
The nth doubly-triangular number is, among other things, the number of ways to paint the vertices of a square using a set of n colors, where the colors are distinct but rotations and reflections of a given colored square are considered the same.
If these 148 numbers (the first 148 digits of 1/149) are written as the top row of a 148x148 square grid, and then the digits of 2/149 as the second row, then 3/149 and so on, the result is a 148x148 pseudo-magic square, in which every row and column sums to 666.

It is lower than the number that we expected could be the potential record, and it is on a different thread (series of numbers that are formed by the reversal-addition iteration), as the resultant palindrome is different from that of the record for 161 iterations.
These numbers are not recorded even if they are the most delayed palindromic number of that digit set, simply because this was not the purpose of the program.
