The SCCCIIIEEENNCNCCE FAQ

Name: Anonymous 2006-10-21 14:57

I thought it would be good if we had a board FAQ to explain basic concepts to the anonymii.

I'd start with:

1. Is it Maths or Math?
2. Is 1/0 infinite?
3. Is 0/0 i?
4. Is 0 positive?
5. Is 0.999999... equal to 1?
6. How did I do a barrel roll?
