Java Numbers: Exercise-20 with Solution

Write a Java program to display the first 10 Fermat numbers.

In mathematics, a Fermat number is a positive integer of the form

where n is a nonnegative integer.
The first few Fermat numbers are:
3, 5, 17, 257, 65537, 4294967297, 18446744073709551617, …

public class Example20 {
      
public static void main( String args[] ){ 
        int n = 0;        
        double result;
        
        while (n <= 10) {
            result= Math.pow (2, Math.pow(2, n)) + 1;
            n++;
            System.out.println (result);
        }
     }
