    Found out some interesting stats about my machine from a rather nice bit of code I found lying around on my machine today. I thought some people liked to be precise....


    radix: algorithm: 2 provided: 2 precision: algorithm: 53 provided: 53 machine epsilon: algorithm: 2.22045e-016 formula: 2.22045e-016 provided: 2.22045e-016 smallest non-zero magnitude: formula: 2.22507e-308 provided: 2.22507e-308 largest non-zero magnitude: formula: 1.#INF provided: 1.79769e+308 smallest exponent: -1021 largest exponent: 1024 This system has 1.84287e+019 numbers


    It's good to see kids turning their minds to wholesum activities such as programming, instead of wasting their lives in the hedonistic disciplines of Sex, Drugs, & Rock & Roll... or Sex with Drugs, or Sex with Rocks while Rolling in Drugs, or whatever new-fangled perversions you little monsters have thought up now...
