RE: Tell me..
Chomp, hardeware, firmware, ram, and bytes is all the same. Basically.

hibbyware Wrote:Sparker Wrote:so is it logical that twice a byte is a chomp?
That's called a "word" but sometimes can be bigger,
What about crumbs? lol
Yeah, words can be confused with the word size of a CPU.
So I hence declare chomps :P
32 bit integer = double chomp, or DChomp.

RE: Tell me..
now wee just need someone to recite paradoxes to really mess with everyone's mind.
Let's say your going to run a race. so ready set go, and your off! sprinting as fast as you can. But to finish the race, you have to get halfway, to get halfway, you have to go half of a half of the way. To go a half of a half of the way, you have to half of a half of a half of the way. This goes on into infinity, meaning there are infinite number of half way points. You can never cross an infinite number of half way points, so why even start the race?

There is no half way on the finish way.
If the temperature this morning is 0 degrees and the Weather Channel says, "it will be twice as cold tomorrow", what will the temperature be?

if practice makes perfect, and nobody's perfect, why practice?

well there r 2 ways i can think off to answer that
1 difference in temp between previous day/avg temeperature past few days n today so if difference is 5degrees then the next day would be -5 degrees celsius
2 using absolute scale so 0 = 273k
as cold is only a relative term to describe heat or rather the absence of it it could be concluded that 476k would be double of 273k
so the temp would be 273 degrees celsius

there is a possibility somebody might get perfect at 1 particular task but its a very rare thing for someone to be perfect even at 1 task
once u r perfect u need to practice to make sure u stay perfect

But the point of practising is because you aren't perfect. So practising whilst being perfect is a contradiction :P
