What is the (large number divisible by 3)th derivative of sin(x)

Consider first of all numbers of the form (numbers whose digits are all 1, with ).

Considering modulo 4, we find .

Therefore  we can say that numbers of the form are modulo .  (since: )

Therefore we know that we wish to differentiate times, where is a number which is modulo 4.  This means that the sought derivative is equal to the 3rd derivative of , which is .

I think it's much more efficient to look at it as a number of the form:




and so that is a number before a multiple of 4. so 3 in mod 4.
But hey, you got it right unlike me who counted sin(x) as the 1st derivative of sin(x) rather than the 0th  :-[

Did you mean 5^n instead of 5^2, kamil?
