== Notation == |
|
|
There is little consensus on the notation for hexation; as such, there are many different ways to write the operation. However, some are more used than others, and some have clear advantages or disadvantages compared to others. |
|
|
|
|
|
* Pentation can be written as a ] as <math>a{b} |
|
|
</math> |
|
|
* In ], hexation can be represented as <math>a \uparrow \uparrow \uparrow \uparrow \uparrow b |
|
|
</math> or <math>a {\uparrow}^5 {b} |
|
|
</math> |
