    You made me suspicious. My first guess was that the dot-product of a vector of value 12024562121 with the 11-dimension, is a point. ;P Let me redo my calculations and i will let you know the result. ;) Jorgen Sigvardsson wrote: Sidenote: If you wan't to make best friends with a functional programmer (Haskell junkie or the like), tell them that numbers are nothing more than named constant functions.

Even if numbers were written as static functions, God is smart enough to pass the universe application through an opimizing compiler that turn them all into inline. :laugh: - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Memory leaks is the price we pay \0 01234567890123456789012345678901234

When you do, I guess I'll have to blow the dust off my algebra book. I'm not sure however if it contained n-dimensional stuff where n > 3. I remember calculating 3d planes and things like that. I can barely grasp n = 4 if you consider dimension 4 = time (an old physics brain damage). n > 4 gives me head aches. But hey, I'll give it a shot to try to understand your answer, I might just learn something new :) Kastellanos Nikos wrote: If someone believe that, then the universe is a computer, in which the numbers are evaluated each time we refer to them. I never claimed that FP-people were sane.. ;) Allthough, some of their ways of doing stuff is pretty clever.

      All I can say is "WOW". Do you guys actually think and understand things like that? I mean when you write down "n-tuple of values" are you just doing a bullshit salesman talk or is this matrix of n-dimensional* values spiralling in your head and you understand it like I understand the LOTR? Either way it all sounds impressive. * this is salesman talk as you can see, I have no clue what it means regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa Do you Sonork?

I solemnly swear I'm not a salesman ;). My experience with sales personell has been less than perfect. If they're on the other side, they'll bullshit you. If they're on your side, they'll bullshit the customer, which in turn will generate more work for you. An n-tuple is basically an ordered collection of n values (may be homogenous or hetrogenous wrt type). Surely you must have heard of tuples before in the context of databases? A row is basically a tuple, and a table is a set of tuples.

          Is there any number like that? The highest I ever heard of is 2^32:suss:

                Dunno. The only really big number I hear bandied about is the "google", which stands for a number "larger than infinity" (actually 10^100 - see http://watson-net.com/jargon/jargon.asp?w=google). /ravi "There is always one more bug..." ravib@ravib.com http://www.ravib.com
