not if you're asian. with all the asians here i'm surprised we don't have more votes for 8

I like 9.

If you divide anything by nine, you get a repeating decimel. How cool is that? Especially cause the number you get consists of the original number, just repeating! like 1/9=.11111111111111111111111111......
13/9=1.444444444444444444......... (where you get this: 1.3+.13+.013 etc.)


How cool is that?

umm...

18/9 = 2
9/9 = 1

No repeating decimals there

You are obviously both math geniuses

2 = 2.00000000000000000000........
1 = 1.00000000000000000000........

*gasp* what's this?!?!?! where did all those decimals come from?!?!?!

 

[Descartes]

Why did you go with 1-10 and not 0-9?

I like 6 because it's a perfect number.
I like 5 because it's of historical mathematical significance with the Pythagoreans, Plato, etc. Think pentagon, pentagram, dodecahedron, and phi.
I like 0 because it's the nothing that is, and its introduction by the Hindus gave us the place-value system we use today.

Well, von Neumann, you should then know that a repeating decimal is a remainder in which zero is NEVER reached.

If I google "What is a decimal" I get "decimal fraction, decimal -- (a proper fraction whose denominator is a power of 10)"
link

hmmm... 1 = 1.0000000000..... all these 0s are proper fractions whose denominators are powers of 10 and the zero is repeating, hence the use of "repeating decimals", tada!

Now if you want to go nuts and argue this on mathematical grounds, then by all means go ahead. All this to say that you're missing the forest for the trees, the guy likes 9 because of the patterns that come out of having it in the denominator in a base-10 system.

Why would I want to argue a mathematical argument on mathematical grounds? And yes, math is about the trees in the forest, not the forest itself.

Anyway, I'm just giving you a hard time. :beer:

So true coming from the guy with the sig that happens to be in my top 5 favorite quotes I won't translate it for fear that it would lose its significance....
