This is a new, sourced, write-up of the reference to this term I happen to know. Eric Weisstein has inserted a a note in MathWorld about a (slightly different) generalization of the term, and the article on that was deleted, perhaps rightly. Septentrionalis 21:10, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
- This seems fine, except that I'd wager there are other uses of the term out in the literature somewhere. I'm not quite bored enough to go looking for them right now, but if someone else is, maybe he'd like to make a disambiguation page. --Trovatore 18:53, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
- I have better sourced and significantly expanded this article, and merged from Hamming number some additional content. I didn't include a link to MathWorld because that describes a different concept ({2,5}-smooth as opposed to {2,3,5}-smooth numbers) on which there seems less scholarly work. —David Eppstein 06:51, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
