(18, 46, 1939565)-Net in Base 256 — Upper bound on s

There is no (18, 46, 1939566)-net in base 256, because

the generalized Rao bound for nets shows that 256^mÂ â‰¥ 601 227167 364998 986233 785249 601119 465837 246608 219997 967903 922017 588660 780505 628417 834001 076434 357712 357524 314896 > 256⁴⁶ [i]
