January 25[edit]

How to understand "Numerical calculations" table here?[edit]

I am so interested to understand Numerical Calculations. It is updating yearly wise I think. Rizosome (talk) 18:20, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Updates are made when there is something new to report, which is very irregularly. The table shows, in chronological order, the advances that have been made in verifying the Riemann Hypothesis (or, rather, in failing to find counterexamples) by computing its zeros up to increasing heights. If there is something specific you want to see explained, please let us know.  --Lambiam 20:39, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

What does height mean ? Rizosome (talk) 06:21, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

See immediately above the table. --142.112.149.107 (talk) 08:13, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
To be fair to the OP, I added this just before replying.  --Lambiam 10:50, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
