I see a mention of A/C, and steel or iron plows. Yet the dependence today of the technology is transportation of food and materials: Heavy equipment used in farming: and one thing I have not seen is refrigeration. Both are the reason the population of the world today can exist at all.

35 was a simple number easily factored even as a kid. It was an example. Again thanks for the time.

Well this was just some thing a small child learned a long time ago. 40 years +.. removed. It uses a number less than half the original. Thanks for looking, was just wondering if such had a name. edited due to this "This routine consists of dividing n by each integer m that is...

trust me this is trivial... As a kid I had a teacher fond of asking if numbers were prime. Of course at the time I had no calculator and did not have many primes remembered. I did not even know the less than square root. I came up with a method that made a simple chart of smaller than the...

Seems again the idea of numbers and what they are is in play here.

Legislation to force a mathematical concept into law.. Scary. Reminds me, that there was a time one did not go against the church for fear of torture and or death.

The problem with such stings, is entrapment over the individuals desire to attempt to commit a crime. This becomes a fine and very tricky line, and why the law enforcement must be properly trained, including handling of informants, laws and so forth.

Interesting conversation. I know people with degrees that say they are. Yet I would never trust them to do. I also know people with degrees that do know and practice there stuff. So does the paper that says you are, when you can not do, worth what is says? I suspect the original poster knows...

It as a single prime, takes out the largest amount of numbers from being prime. 50% of them greater than 2. No other number unto itself can do that.

1MileCrash I do not know what to say to you. I really don't. I have encountered this before, and for some reason it just does not get across. (0+1i) does not = (0-1i). How do you come to the conclusion you have? Edited to remove shorthand.

dipole What is the relation to s in the first and only the first statement? It does not exist. Therefore it is a partial statement of the second one. It usually will be marked wrong.

Stuff to catch up on. A quick scan: I agree.

One statement is a partial of the other.

"b a real and positive integer" b a real integer yes. Not a problem in that statement. Yet it can be confusing due to it is a part of i. Simply put if b =1, and A= 1 then b still is not equal to b. a is only equal to b at (0,0) Yet the complex number is two sides, which is why I see the...

"10 years of probation" Putting off what will happen I believe.
