A Smarandache -like function which is defined where is defined as the smallest integer for which . The Smarandache function can therefore be obtained by replacing any factors which are th powers in by their roots.
where is the number of solutions to .
The functions for , 3, ..., 6 for values such that are tabulated by Begay (1997). The following table gives for small and , 2, ....
