I dare you to find something nerdier than this

I'm on my knees bowing to the nerd-clock-god.

It's on the wall in the eureka writers' room.

Notice what they have for '7'.

Epic, ill take two.

 

[ConwayJim]

That is pretty cool!

 

[BW86]

I want one of those

 

[geno]

I just got a nosebleed looking at that.

 

[Matthiasa]

Hmm I'm sure something has to be.

I only understand 12, 6, and 7 o'clock

 

[darkxshade]

Heh I wouldn't be able to deciper like half of those if not for the fact that I know how to read a clock.

0x0b is 11 in hex. other than that I'm with you, I have no idea what that says...

Sad... its all high school mathematics in India and China

Awesome clock.

12 - obvious
1 - not sure
2 - It's just the infinite sum 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8...
3 - no idea
4 - 1/2 mod 7? I dunno
5 - seen this before but I can't remember
6 - 3x2x1 = 6
7 - 6 + 0.9r = 6 + 1 = 7
8 - simple binary 0111 = 8
9 - 21 in base 4 I think
10 - combinatorics... there are 10 ways to pick 2 objects from 5
11 - that's 11 in hex

I got these...I also understand 10. It's a matrix (matrice?) so you multiply 5x2. The rest make my head hurt...

/BA undergraduate

Edit: silverpig apparently has the correct answer for 10. I'm going to shut up now

OP, shows the Geek Clock. Link explains each number.

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]12 - a radical
1 - Legendre's constant is a mathematical constant occurring in a formula conjectured by Adrien-Marie Legendre to capture the asymptotic behavior of the prime-counting function. Its value is now known to be exactly 1.
2 - A joke in the math world: An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar. The first one orders a beer. The second orders half a beer. The third, a quarter of a beer. The bartender says, "You're all idiots," and pours two beers.
3 - A unicode character XML "numeric character reference."
4 - Modular arithmetic, also known as clock arithmetic, is a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers "wrap around" after they reach a certain value. The modular multiplicative inverse of 2 (mod 7) is the integer /a/ such that 2*/a/ is congruent to 1 modulo 7.
5 - The Golden Mean...reworked a little.
6 - Three factorial (3*2*1=6)
7 - A repeating decimal that is proven to be exactly equal to 7 with Cauchy's Convergence Test.
8 - Graphical representation of binary code.
9 - An example of a base-4 number, which uses the digits 0, 1, 2 and 3 to represent any real number.
10 - A Binomial Coefficient, also known as the choose function. 5 choose 2 is equal to 5! divided by (2!*(5-2)!)
11 A hexadecimal, or base-16, number.[/FONT][/FONT]

 

[PottedMeat]

what the hell is B'L &#x33(weird symbol) and (2phi -1)^2? never seen those notations before

 

[Nitemare]

I wouldn't mind actually getting one of those.

 

[frostedflakes]

3 is for the unicode character 3. Not sure about the others. (2*phi-1)^2 looks familiar, but I don't know why. Something to do with trig identities, maybe? :hmm:

I don't see seven. Just a number slightly smaller than 7 ...
