For an integer , let  denote the greatest prime factor of , i.e., the number  in the factorization

with  for . For , 3, ..., the first few are 2, 3, 2, 5, 3, 7, 2, 3, 5, 11, 3, 13, 7, 5, ... (OEIS A006530). The greatest multiple prime factors for squareful integers are 2, 2, 3, 2, 2, 3, 2, 2, 5, 3, 2, 2, 3, ... (OEIS A046028).

A number for which  is called an unusual number by Greene and Knuth (1990) and a -rough numbers by Finch (2001). The first few -rough numbers are 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 17, 19, 20, 21, ... (OEIS A064052). The probability that a random positive integer is -rough is  (Schroeppel 1972).

A number that is not -rough is called, not surprisingly, a -smooth number (or sometimes, a "round number"). The first few are 1, 4, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 25, 27, ... (OEIS A048098).
