Re: Random BigInteger

Speaking of PI, I've always thought it to be a bit revealing about our concept of Math as being imperfect since the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter cannot be perfectly represented.....then again you can say that 22/7 is a perfect a representation and its base 10 decimal units that cannot represent it perfectly.

I remember wondering after seeing the movie "The Sphere" that if we ever came across a perfect sphere, how would we know since we cannot represent PI perfectly....that is assuming PI is significant to determining how close to perfection a sphere is.

C++ programmers will dismiss you as a cretinous simpleton for your inability to keep track of pointers chained 6 levels deep and Java programmers will pillory you for buying into the evils of Microsoft. Meanwhile C# programmers will get paid just a little bit more than you for writing exactly the same code and VB6 programmers will continue to whitter on about "footprints". - FunkyDexter

There's just no reason to use garbage like InputBox. - jmcilhinney

The threads I start are Niya and Olaf free zones. No arguing about the benefits of VB6 over .NET here please. Happiness must reign. - yereverluvinuncleber
