    That is such a coincidence because I've just been voted in as a planet too. Very cool. I hope to be voted in as a Sun one day so I can go by the name Apollo. It's such a cool name. Plus then all you people will have to rotate around me and I'll be the center of your Universe. Yes, the sun is the center of the Universe. I pre-emptively struck on your future humor that I didn't know that the sun was the center of a solar system. Wham!

      If he's the center of the universe, then technically shouldn't the keyboard back away from him?

        Maybe it can't because the gravitational pull is so strong.

          Well, then it's time to invent an escape-assist rocket for a keyboard. Or honestly, maybe you should just let it collapse into him... If you add enough keyboards (And divert the entire manufacturing capacity of the human race to this for several million years), you could turn him into a black hole. I don't know where this is going, but my gut tells me it's just one punchline away from being funny.

              Ok, that's a start, but now you have to combine it with the semi-joke... Somehow connect that to a black h-- Ya know what... Let's just let that one go-- Err, no, don't do that... Uh... Just pass-- No...

                Every time planets or orbits or space or universe or anything astronomical then there is the required mention of the 7th planet in our solar system. We really need a rename on that planet, don't you think?

                    +2 for the chuck norris reference. I should've seen it coming, but I was busy with my countdown from infinity.

                      It was renamed... In 2620. Don't you watch Futurama?

                        I haven't watched Futurama, because I boycotted The Simpsons in Season 2 and haven't watched anything by Matt Groening since. I know. Pretty cool, huh?

                          This is the whole of a would-be Tip submitted today:

                          public class Class1
                          {
                          static void Main(string[] args)
                          {
                          Console.WriteLine("Enter a Number");
                          int num = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
                          for (int i = 1; i <=num ; i++)
                          {
                          if(i==2)
                          Console.WriteLine(2);

                                      if (i % 2 != 0)
                                      {
                                          Console.WriteLine(i);
                                      }
                                  }
                          
                               }
                          }
                          

                          No text, no explanation - the author (I can only assume he works for Mindfire, it's about their level) clearly felt that it spoke for itself. And boy, does it ever! This, ladies-n-gentlemen, is a Prime Number generator according to the author. So...I tried it... According to this code, the prime numbers under 26 are:

                          1
                          2
                          3
                          5
                          7
                          9
                          11
                          13
                          15
                          17
                          19
                          21
                          23
                          25

                          Now, call me old fashioned, but in my day, 9, 15 and 21 were divisible by 3, and both 15 and 25 were divisible by 5... So which is wrong? The Code? Or the Laws of Mathematics? Only the author can tell... :laugh:

                          What's the problem? That lists all the primes less than 26. It also lists some other numbers as well, no extra charge.

                            You and your old-fashioned ideas of what a prime is.... :~ :rolleyes:

                            If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams
                            You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
                            Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

                                          {
                                              Console.WriteLine(i);
                                          }
                                      }
                              
                                   }
                              }
                              

                              No text, no explanation - the author (I can only assume he works for Mindfire, it's about their level) clearly felt that it spoke for itself. And boy, does it ever! This, ladies-n-gentlemen, is a Prime Number generator according to the author. So...I tried it... According to this code, the prime numbers under 26 are:

                              1
                              2
                              3
                              5
                              7
                              9
                              11
                              13
                              15
                              17
                              19
                              21
                              23
                              25

                              Now, call me old fashioned, but in my day, 9, 15 and 21 were divisible by 3, and both 15 and 25 were divisible by 5... So which is wrong? The Code? Or the Laws of Mathematics? Only the author can tell... :laugh:

                              Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

                              Looks like OP is trying to get odd numbers and two.
