...when you see this: "1" + "2" = "3"

Right, to make it a little more interesting, I say the one everyone is thinking... I hope..

SEX!!

Honestly, I was not thinking of sex when I read that.

Umm, I didn't think sex.

I thought: why are there quote marks around the numbers?

Actually my first thought was that the numbers, being in quotes, would be considered strings. If so the answer was wrong.

Maybe because the numbers are within inverted commas they are ascii values, therefore the answer would be 99 not "3"! However 99 is "c", the third letter in the alphabet!!

Mathematics, "addition" to be more precise.

precisely - then sex. only because it was suggested by Dowly... but that had nothing to do with the numbers.

Dowly, is there anything that doesn't make you think of sex?

Elephants. The opinion of this git is that elephant sex is a myth.

stabiz · 07-01-10, 08:05 AM

The only way that would make me think of sex is if it said 1+1=3

Tell that to the local zoo patrons hereabouts who were treated to a free live elephant sex show in the public viewing area a few years back.

Made me think if a mathmatical equation.....

It makes me think of the beauty and purity of numbers. We give names to numbers so we can understand them, but the numbers themselves are perfect, and never wrong. I suck at math but I love the logic of numbers themselves.
