(172, 217, 218898)-Net in Base 3 — Upper bound on s
There is no (172, 217, 218899)-net in base 3, because
- 1 times m-reduction [i] would yield (172, 216, 218899)-net in base 3, but
- the generalized Rao bound for nets shows that 3m ≥ 11 433909 852048 155753 276285 802679 771415 237938 344585 165884 592310 194651 823436 369796 319094 612774 481738 452637 > 3216 [i]
