Find the last 4 digits of 20162016.
Technically I was able to solve this question by I used Wolfram Alpha and modular arithmetic so the worst I had to do was raise a 4 digit number to the 9th power. I would do 20162≡42562≡⋯
and then continue using the prime factorization of 2016. I am wondering if there is a better way to solve this.
