What are you going to do with a basketball?

I don't know. What size is it?

Back in HS, a teacher would always give one extra credit question at the end of the test. That one question would then have 14 parts, often making it even longer than the test itself. It was worth 5 points. Most people did the simple math to realize it wasn't worth it.

I'm stumped here. A value that high has to be something computer related - like years to milliseconds or your favorite conversion between byte and string vectors.

FAIL.

Shim was on the right track. I'll post the correct answer shortly.

brady said...

Please make the answer in 14 installments. Then, quit on installment #13 so we never find out. Like the rest of your multi-part stories.

Flintstone R Cube said...

ok.

Shim said...

Its the Ebay number for an NBA basketball,

tsk-tsk. I don't want to be a party to your assistance, Shim. Cover your work and keep wandering eyes from being tempted.

Meanwhile, I've burned through a chief yellow tablet scribbling out the endless possibilities to this one. I've boiled it down to either a number evenly divisible by 2 to the 8th power, or the distance separating Earth & Mars if measured in hot dogs.

Well, brady. I noticed when I posted "31.5" that several (both) of my readers consulted google. My intention in posting "150318597377" was to save you some time. A google search would bring up a sole entry. The point being that the search had the string vector "28.5" in it. Which is how much I now need to lose to get to my current goal weight. Ta-daaaah!
