what do you want to ask? | |

it had better not be asking for a formula which can accurately predict prime numbers of any given digit length. | |

Ok , since i can't type numbers normally i'll try to explain it as if using a calculator
I thought it was really cool , when i made it up as a child ! But frankly it was just a coincedence press 9 , 8 times divide by 3 , 4 times The outcome is 1234567,8 !!! I wanted to know if that's just coincedence or some kind of mathemetical formula ? (even now the numbers are posted different , wtf !) [Edited 11/25/04 6:20am] | |

[Edited 11/25/04 6:18am] i know what you're trying to say. the answer is "yes" to both. | |

Dunno, but it's not exact so it's unlikely to be an equation. If you multiply 1234567.8 by 3 to the power 4 then it doesn't give you 99999! Happy is he who finds out the causes for things.Virgil (70-19 BC). Virgil was such a lying bastard! | |

Damn , couldn't write down the exact outcome ! [Edited 11/25/04 6:28am] | |

it's just 99999 divided by 81. it's just a sum, but it can still be expressed as a mathematical formula. The fact that the result is 12345...blah blah, is no big deal though. So yep, to moth. oh, and the reason it doesn't come out as 99999 is just your calculator rounding the number up when you work the other way. The answer's actually 1234567.8 recurring. | |

Yes , so ?
Actually if i counted correctly it's 1234567,8 + 24 8's and a 9 at the end Why ? Thanks for replying Btw i meant coincidence and mathematics (i hate making spelling errors) [Edited 11/25/04 7:06am] | |

TheFrog said: PREDOMINANT said: Didn't use a calculator!! why did you round it up yourself then? Brain automatically rounds up after 10 decimal places, I guess it just comes from being a child of the 80's. I have been decimalised, can't override it.
