(185, 226, 968013)-Net in Base 3 — Upper bound on s

There is no (185, 226, 968014)-net in base 3, because

1 times m-reduction [i] would yield (185, 225, 968014)-net in base 3, but
- the generalized Rao bound for nets shows that 3^mÂ â‰¥ 225052 080572 945606 443175 277042 286982 445579 051561 134083 579116 198368 976750 472223 946927 181414 894538 069239 573929 > 3²²⁵ [i]
