.9999~ versus 1 is a matter of representation. Like I said before, they are the same number. A sequence 1.01, 1.0001, 1.000001, etc. is also equal to 1 at limit point. And Legion, the point of a convergent sequence is that it does actually get there, but at infinity.

The only infinitely repeating numbers of finite order that are not comparable to a finite representation would be the irrationals. You will not find a way to represent sqrt(2) , for example, in a finite way using conventional means.

By the way, all numbers are theoretical. They do no inherently exist, they are abstractions of things we experience and perceive.

anyways, i'd like to throw out that it has been proven that no set of axioms will encompasss all properties we know about math without contradiction

Not quite. It has been proven that axiomatic systems will yield an infinite number of results, some of which are neither provable or disprovable.

Good job on getting a second opinion. You never know how much one doctor can screw something up. It's best to be safe. A friend I had died of cancer at age 13 b/c one of his doctors was incompetent. They figured this out too late and treatment was not effective enough to save him.

Posted on 05-27-05 03:59 PM, in Books based on Movies... movies based on books...

Link

I would not usually read a book based on a movie simply b/c it seems sort of, illegitamate to me. Like the quality seems like it would be compromised, and a cheap way to generate extra income for the company.

Other way around, I sure would and have several times. I've been meaning to read Fight Club for a long time now. I enjoyed Jurassic Park much more than the movie, for example.

Link

Meh. Sith have no loyalties. never know when you'll end up dead at a Jedi hand or your own master's/apprentice's. That and I'm not too fond of being evil.

Force lightning, while cool, is not necessary considering all the other cool abilities you can wield as a Jedi. A skilled Jedi can contain those attacks anyways.

edit: you's all some evil mofos from the looks of the poll.

Well I don't follow Star Wars novels and all that other crap but it seems to me from the movies that this part about good/evil being a point of view is a Lie.

However, this seems to have turned into a death penalty debate.

Yep I agree with Leg on his criminal status but disagree on the death penalty issue. Let's save that for another thread.
