LongLiveYorke 38 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I saw that LLY was on it, and I got caught in a Wikipedia vortex.Here's where I ended up. Graham's number: It is massive, like huge. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham%27s_numberYou can't even write the thing in scientific notation, because "because even the digits in the exponent would exceed the number of particles in the visible universe".Graham's number is like my favorite mathematical thing ever. I've slipped in a few Graham's number references on the Forums when no one's looking."What are the chances of him hitting that two outer on the river?!?!?""About one in Graham's number."The best part about Graham's number is the fact that it is an upper bound. That would be like me telling my girlfriend that she doesn't look fat in that dress because she's smaller than a blue whale. Link to post Share on other sites

LongLiveYorke 38 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 My head asplode.That's nothing. What'll really bake your noodle is this:So, we agree that there are infinite natural numbers (1,2,3... etc). Obviously, right? And we agree that there are infinitely many real numbers (as in every possible decimal expansion with negatives and zero included). But what if we are only talking about integers (... -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3...). Are there more integers than natural numbers (1, 2, 3...). You will probably at first guess say yes, because integers include negatives. So, there are twice as many. But mathematically, you'd be wrong. There are the same number. How do we know? Well, the definition of the type of infinity that we're talking about is being able to count the infinite amount of things that we're talking about. In other words, if you can use natural numbers (1, 2, 3... etc) to count something, even if there is infinitely many of that thing, then there is the same amount of that thing than there are natural numbers (infinitely many, but the same type of infinity). I would propose that it would be easy to count all the integers by assigning them natural numbers (this is called mapping, or more specifically one to one correspondence mapping, or using a bijection). As an example, I would just label 0 with a 1, 1 with a 2, -1 with a 3, 2 with a 4, -2 with a 5, 3 with a 6, -3 with a 7, etc. If you do this, there is no doubt as to which number each integer would get (it would take you a while to actually figure it out maybe but the answer would be definite). So, there are therefore the same number of integers as there are natural numbers. Cool, isn't it.(if you really want to shoot yourself in the face, consider the rational numbers, or every number that can be described by a fraction of integers) Link to post Share on other sites
coesillian 0 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 That's nothing. What'll really bake your noodle is this:. But what if we are only talking about integers....nah that stuff isn't that cool, infinity blows. Pi is the shiznit, it's everywhere, close second would be e, but Pi makes the world go round, I love Pi, I'm in it for Pi!and following the riddle theme but not at all really Link to post Share on other sites

zsta2k6 0 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 FINEyou're at heaven's gate, which is actually a room with 2 identical doors ,1 goes to hell and 1 goes to heaven, and 2 identical bouncers guard the doors. 1 is the devil and he always lies and 1 is st-peter and he always tell the truth. You can only ask 1 question to 1 of them, but you don't know if if the door the devil/st-peter is standing in front of is heaven or hell, but they know which door is behind them. What is your 1 question to 1 of them?Simple. Ask one if troyo is gay, if he says yes, he is teh saint. If he says no, then he is the devil. Link to post Share on other sites

Jeepster80125 0 Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 5:33 PM[/b]' post='1558433']I think I win. If 5 different cats are eating five different mice, and it takes them 5 minutes to eat them, then it takes 5 minutes for each cat to eat their mouse, so no matter how many cats you have, it takes them 5 minutes.Right? I might be more retarded than wang, but it's a close call. 10:28 PM[/b]' post='1559169']I think it would still be 5 minutes because it would take each cat 5 minutes to eat his respectful mouse. Therefore, as long as #cats=#mice, the actual # is irrelevent. My answer is 5 minutes.Your Retarded. Go check page eleven. Unless I'm missing something. Link to post Share on other sites
