Jay-qu Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 yup that would definetly do it... quick question what kind of calculators do you guys use? I have a Texus Instruments TI-83, and it only does numbers up to 9.99 x 10^99 which is no good for these kind of calculations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianthepoet Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 I made up the following riddle at the beginning of September, 2005 What is the difference between Alzheimer's Disease and ... damn! I forgot it again! My Uncle was in hospital with Alzheimer's disease and when I went to see him I took a huge bunch of forget-me-nots, but they didn't help.

Qfwfq Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 Strictly, it should be written 9^(9^9) (or 9!^(9!^9!) or whatever) but it makes sense to suppose the parenthesis because (9^9)^9 = 9^(9*9). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay-qu Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 it makes sense to suppose the parenthesis because (9^9)^9 = 9^(9*9). hmmm interesting so...
