Re: Forum Statistic - What's the odds?
Aw heck
i missed being prime by one number.
B=2
e=5
y=25
o=15
n=14
d=4
However, if i change to ::Beyonc::, then i would be prime.![Laughing :lol2:](./images/smilies/asterisk_laugh.gif)

Re: Forum Statistic - What's the odds?
You have 24 odds and ends on a table.
If 23 of them fell off, what would you have left?

I do like those primes!
(I'm not proud of them, though.

Better watch out, owlice. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illegal_prime
Just call me "geck" because "zilla" is like a last name.
Re: Forum Statistic - What's the odds?
Oh, that's really interesting; thanks. Since they are such huge numbers, I think I'm safe; too many digits for the tingling sensation!

It is a source of constant disappointment to me that the legal profession has no issue with making certain numbers illegal, or patenting genes, or patenting mathematical algorithms, etc, etc, etc.geckzilla wrote:Better watch out, owlice. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illegal_prime

Some of my best friends are lawyers. I reckon that makes me flawed too.

There is only one state of perfection, but an entire spectrum of flawed. I guess we need to look at where people lie along that spectrum.Nitpicker wrote:Some of my best friends are lawyers. I reckon that makes me flawed too.

Re: Forum Statistic - What's the odds?
What are the chances that two of the three main statistics on the Asterisk home page (Total posts, total topics, total members) are prime numbers at any given time? As has happened in the past, tonight I noticed that two of them were prime (Total posts 132721 • Total topics 12577); it's inevitable that this circumstance should occur, but how often?
