#OffTopicThursday - What's the largest number between one and one million that doesn't have an 'N' in it?
@th3j35t3r 999,999. Those are numbers, not letters. No "n" in it.
I like that answer.
@LiberalLibrarian @th3j35t3r
@LiberalLibrarian @th3j35t3r Would the answer then not depend on what language the answer was presented in?
@LiberalLibrarian @th3j35t3r So in addition to assuming the answer was spelled out, should we also assume that the answer is limited to the set of whole numbers? 88.8888 etc. is larger than 8!
@wyrmeboi @LiberalLibrarian @th3j35t3r "Point" would have an "N"
@sfleetucker @LiberalLibrarian @th3j35t3r But "decimal"๐ doesn't...
@LiberalLibrarian Winner Winner Chicken Dinner! @th3j35t3r
@LiberalLibrarian @th3j35t3r Well, that depends on whether you interpret a numeral as identical to its verbal alias, or as a separate entity.
I interpret numerals as identical to their aliases, because to do otherwise requires asserting that at least on some level (9 != nine)... and that just doesn't seem right to me.
! haha! @LiberalLibrarian @th3j35t3r
