Thus, when the entries of the row are concatenated and read in radix <math>a</math> they form the numerical equivalent of <math>(a + 1)^{n} = 11^{n}_{a}</math>. If <math>c = a + 1</math> for <math>c < 0</math>, then the theorem [[Negative base|holds]] for <math>a =\bmod 2c</math>, with <math>a</math> congruent to <math>\{c - 1, -(c + 1)\} \;\mathrm{mod}\; 2c</math>, and with odd values of <math>n</math> [[Negative number#Multiplication|yielding]] negative row products.<ref>{{cite book
