[#R125] Packed binary enumeration through length twenty-six
1Summary
The program checks every binary word modulo complement and reports five exact maxima series.
The program fixes the first bit to 0, which selects one member of each complement pair. It checks every circular start and every even factor length. Distinct factors use a length-tagged 64-bit key. Exact period tests separate primitive and nonprimitive words. At n=26 it examines 33,554,432 words. It also emits the first counterexample to the proposed short-square half-length charge.
Reproduced evidence. Recorded scope: every binary word of lengths 1 through 26, with complements identified.
