BB(2,4) was unofficially found to be 3,932,964 on April 10, 2023 by the bbchallenge project, when deciders made for solving BB(5) eliminated the last BB(2,4) holdouts. The champion machine M, with S(M) = 3,932,964 and Σ(M) = 2,050, was found by Terry and Shawn Ligocki in February 2005.

Work formalizing this result is ongoing.

History

  • Brady found a steps and ones champion in 1988, establishing S(2,4) ≥ 7195 and Σ(2,4) ≥ 90.[1]
  • Terry and Shawn Ligocki found the current champion in 2005.

Champion

S(2,4) = 3,932,964 and Σ(2,4) = 2050 and both are achieved by only one champion (in TNF):

  • 1RB2LA1RA1RA_1LB1LA3RB1RZ (bbch)
