Take the base value 100 as an example. After doubling 1 times, it is 100× 2 = 200, and after doubling 1 times, it is also 100×2=200. We can't see the difference between them from here. But after quadrupling, it is 100×=400, and only 100×(2+ 1)=300.
In fact, quadrupling is quadrupling, quadrupling is quadrupling, which is quadrupling. Doubling is faster than doubling.
A times n, the result is a times a times n, and the result is a times (n+1).
For example:
The current base number is 3. 1 times 6(=3×2), four times 12(=3×2×2), and five times 96 (= 3× 2× 2× 2). In other words, "quadrupling" means multiplying the original number by several twos, that is, multiplying the radix by several powers of two.
For example, quadrupling is the base multiplied by 2 to the fifth power, and quadrupling is the base multiplied by 12 to the second power.
