lol i still don't get the math thing...could you maybe elaborate more? like builderboy said, there are no restrictions on the expression. x can be any number it wants to be without creating any kind of error...

or is that the point?

Yeah, you have an expression with a variable.... but thats it.  Its like saying what is the smallest integer for x in the expression X+1 o.O *Builderboy is very confused*
\
hummmmm.... i am saying two to the x power. 2 4 8 16 32 64.  but then i say divided by 6.  since 2 to the x will never have a multible of three in it, you can't ever solve the problem.   it sounds much better when i say it instead of writing it.

But the point is that you can put in any integer for x. It's not an equation. There's only one side.

EDIT: Wait, unless you mean 2x/6 is an integer...

Wait, are you saying that there is no integer you can put into x, that will result in the expression evaluating into an integer?

Ya, now I'm sucked into the math thing :P It doesn't really make sense to me either but that's what it sounds like, Builder.

My big time number one: When people act like they know what you're talking about, but don't. It's not the fact that they don't know, I understand that. It's just that they assume I'll rail on them for being stupid. Heck, I need people to explain things to me just about every day!

  • not being done on a day a project is due because you were sick

EDIT: Actually, that's not such a bad thing.

No, but it recently happened to Bwang and I feared it may happen to Nemo as well, as one of his bro joined #omnimaga and #cemetech a few times before, and if I remember, they're quite young.

The trick: do not check that box saying "keep me logged in for next visit"

I never had any problems with little siblings messing up my stuff, since I'm the 5th of 6 kids, and my sis is only 2 years younger than me. I think I did it to my bros a few times though :P

When you know a way to solve the problem and it works, then teachers get mad for not doing it their way

I remember some people siblings resetting the calc or breaking it, as well as breaking their consoles and the like. When I was kid, my bro often broke my stuff x.x
