- present:
-
- NUMBERS!
-
-
- This is a list that probably will never be handy, but who cares.
- Surely you've heard of asking somebody for a penny a day, and then
- having them double it each day? Do you know how much that would be?
-
- 1. 1
- 2. 2
- 3. 4
- 4. 8
- 5. 16
- 6. 32
- 7. 64
- 8. 128
- 9. 256
- 10. 512
- 11. 1024
- 12. 2048
- 13. 4096 (Do you notice a pattern here? These are also amounts of RAM)
- 14. 8192
- 15. 16384
- 16. 32768
- 17. 65536
- 18. 131072

- 29. 536870912
- 30. 1073741824
- 31. 2147483648
-
- As you can see, that would be a lot of money. If you're having trouble
- reading it WITH decimal points, read on.

- There you be. $10,737,418 dollars! (and 24 cents) I think somebody might
- catch on after day 10 or so, if they were the stupid type. (and you know who
- you are!)
-
- I have also made a list where the first number is 2, then it's multiplied
- by itself, then the resulting number is multiplied by itself. Here's what I
- mean:
-
- 2
- 4
- 16
- 64
- 4096
- 16777216
- (My calculator stopped after that, and went into powers)
- 2.8147498 >14
- 7.9228164 >28
- 6.277102 >57
- (Then after I tried to multiply 6.277102 >57 by itself, I got an error. If
- only I had a good calculator....well, you can see that the numbers get
- large very quickly)
-
-
- Here is a list of numbers that you'll never use:
-
- Prime Numbers!
-
- 1
- 2
- 3
- 5
- 7
- 11
- 13
- 17
- 19
- 23
- 29
- 31
- 37
- 41
- 43
- 47
- 53
- 59
- 61
-
- There is no guarantee that the above list is correct, and it is definitely NOT
- a complete list!
-
- Have fun with yer numbers!
