Abstract: Abstract Let us give a survey of the three most frequently occurring notations: numbers of the first kind = s(n, k) (Riordan, and also this book,...) = S n k (Jordan, Mitrinović,...) = (-1) n-k S1(n-1, n-k) (Gould, Hagen,...); numbers of the second kind = S(n, k) = $$ S\left( {n,k} \right) = \mathfrak{S}_{\user1{n}}^k = {S_2}\left( {k,n - k} \right) $$ = S 2 (k, n-k).
