Question 27402: Zero, Composite Bases, Negative Inputs and Cancellation Need Distinct Conventions

Original question and givens

Use mode=nonprime_base, base p=6, integer a=2. Give (mode, base, integer_a, p_adic_valuation_qualification, boundary).

• G001 — Use mode=nonprime_base, base p=6, integer a=2. Give (mode, base, integer_a, p_adic_valuation_qualification, boundary).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

• mko-p-adic-valuation-integers

Step-by-step derivation

source roles = [pval-boundary]

derived = [[mode, base, integer_a, p_adic_valuation_qualification, boundary]]

source roles = [nonprime_base, 6, 2]

derived = [No]

Reverse checks

• S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Reverse-check the complete original data,step operands and premises;finite checks,conditional named-theorem use and general formal proof remain distinct.
• S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Reverse-check the complete original data,step operands and premises;finite checks,conditional named-theorem use and general formal proof remain distinct.

Result

(nonprime_base, 6, 2, No, not_called_p_adic_valuation)

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
