Somehow I missed the title and wondered what the fuck was going on...

2, 4, 8, 64, 2048 are powers of 2 (i.e. 2^n), and they don't contain odd numbers (e.g. 16, 128, 1024 contain 1 so are not in this list, same with 4096 containing 9).

why comment about your misunderstanding of the title?
I'm confused by your comment. First, powers of two are 2^n not n^2. But what do you mean you missed the title and wondered what was going on? How could you expect to understand the contents without reading the title? Surely I'm missing something.
