79 is:
- An odd number.
- The smallest number that can not be represented as a sum of fewer than 19 fourth powers.
- A strictly non-palindromic number.[1]
- The 22nd prime number (the next is 83).
- The smallest prime number p for which the real quadratic field Q[√p] has class number greater than 1 (namely 3).[2]
- A cousin prime with 83.
- An emirp, because the reverse of 79, 97, is also a prime.[3]
- A fortunate prime.[4]
- A prime number that is also a Gaussian prime (since it is of the form 4n + 3).

- A Kynea prime (having the form (2n + 1)2 − 2).[7]
- A lucky prime.[8]
- A permutable prime, with ninety-seven.
- A Pillai prime,[9] because 23! + 1 is divisible by 79, but 79 is not one more than a multiple of 23.
- A regular prime.[10]
- A prime in a residue classes 4n + 3, 8n + 7, and 10n + 9.
- A right-truncatable prime, because when the last digit (9) is removed, the remaining number (7) is still prime
- A sexy prime (with 73).
- The n value of the Wagstaff prime 201487636602438195784363.
