Understanding Glitch Primes

Simon Pampena discusses a unique number with 506 digits, mostly nines, except for one digit, making it a 'glitch prime.' He explains its mathematical properties, how to verify its primality, and explores related concepts like binary glitch primes and Cyclops numbers. The video concludes with a promotion for Audible.
