Has there been a question thread before? - Page 185

DS, have you been looking at Ramanujan's series in binary again? I thought I warned you against doing that? And did you remember that the Bailey-Borwein-Plouffe algorithm is only to be used in calculating the hexadecimal expansion of pi!?

When did you warn me against doing that? And why don't I remember?

Unglaublich Verwustung · 08-21-2008, 12:16 PM

Didn't I do that when I advised against calculations using irrational or imaginary numbers to order your take-away supper?

Dragonshadow · 08-21-2008, 04:15 PM

Are you sure?

Unglaublich Verwustung · 08-21-2008, 04:35 PM

If I was sure would I be using the interrogative?

Are you sure the paint isn't dry?

IS this the question thread? Are we sure of anything?

How do you know you didn't walk through the wrong door, and this actually ISN'T the question thread?

There was a door?

Most programming languages have inbuilt functions or libraries to handle it. Would probably take anywhere to ten-fifteen seconds to write a simple command-line program to do it. Might take a minute if you want to give it a fancy UI.

Can you feel the geekness?
