[2008-10-26 02:14:37 UTC]	<Snuck>	it's 3:48 AM now here
[2008-10-26 02:15:19 UTC]	<Snuck>	i shouldve slept looong time ago ;_;
[2008-10-26 04:32:35 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Holy fuck! 10,000 posts is Hammer Mapping
[2008-10-26 04:32:53 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	is = in*
[2008-10-26 04:57:36 UTC]	<jrkookid>	whoa
[2008-10-26 11:56:31 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Whoa.
[2008-10-26 13:43:40 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Har har har!
[2008-10-26 13:54:30 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Ohhhhhh Yeeeeeaaaaahhhhhhh
[2008-10-26 13:56:16 UTC]	<Masta Frank>	eeep
[2008-10-26 16:58:14 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	3rd time today I log on and see a "Just now" by you...
[2008-10-26 16:58:44 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Ahah!
[2008-10-26 16:58:47 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	I are still heer.
[2008-10-26 16:59:03 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	We must have the same post-cycle.
[2008-10-26 16:59:17 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	haha
[2008-10-26 16:59:36 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Like the pee-schedule on Scrubs
[2008-10-26 16:59:54 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Yus.
[2008-10-26 17:00:01 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	How are you anyway?
[2008-10-26 17:00:30 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	I got accepted to my school's big-band
[2008-10-26 17:00:36 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Klkl
[2008-10-26 17:00:38 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	...Which is awesome
[2008-10-26 17:00:43 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	What is it you play?
[2008-10-26 17:00:53 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Clarinet
[2008-10-26 17:01:06 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	You play Oboe, right?
[2008-10-26 17:02:04 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Yeah
[2008-10-26 17:02:07 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Well, played.
[2008-10-26 17:02:13 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Ages ago now.
[2008-10-26 17:02:30 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	I still have it but it is currently 60 miles away, see?
[2008-10-26 17:03:08 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Oh.
[2008-10-26 17:03:35 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	So how are you doin?
[2008-10-26 17:03:51 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Yeah I'm ok
[2008-10-26 17:03:58 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	A bit cold; I ought to get dressed.
[2008-10-26 17:04:07 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	I just had a shower to freshen up see
[2008-10-26 17:04:14 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	But once again I am stumped by Haskell
[2008-10-26 17:04:24 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	nearlyfinalFunction n xs = product (map digitToInt (take 5 (drop n xs)))  finalfunction 0 xs = nearlyfinalFunction 0 xs finalfunction n xs = (nearlyfinalFunction n xs):([nearlyfinalFunction (n-1) xs])  reallyfinalfunction n xs = maximum (finalfunction n xs)
[2008-10-26 17:04:34 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Any ideas?
[2008-10-26 17:04:41 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	That's not formatted, but me.
[2008-10-26 17:04:45 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	*meh.
[2008-10-26 17:04:58 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Uh-oh, mistakes mean my fingers are going cold.
[2008-10-26 17:05:09 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	I wish I had time to learn all dis shit
[2008-10-26 17:06:58 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	I don't have the time either
[2008-10-26 17:07:11 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Hence the mistakes and the horrifying problems that will develop shortly.
[2008-10-26 17:08:43 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	f(x) = x^e
[2008-10-26 17:08:55 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	x to the e?
[2008-10-26 17:08:57 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	That function is it's own derivative?
[2008-10-26 17:09:10 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	e to the x
[2008-10-26 17:09:23 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Oh Fuck
[2008-10-26 17:09:28 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	x to the e is a parabola with gradient 2.7 x
[2008-10-26 17:09:32 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	With capital FUCK
[2008-10-26 17:09:39 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Nice
[2008-10-26 17:09:57 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Do you want to know [i]why[/i] it is its own derivative?
[2008-10-26 17:10:07 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Yes please
[2008-10-26 17:10:27 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Well
[2008-10-26 17:10:48 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	If you exapand it about the origin using a MacLaurin series
[2008-10-26 17:12:36 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	You get 1 + x   (x^2)/2!   (x^3)/3!   (x^4)/4!   ...
[2008-10-26 17:12:39 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	You know what
[2008-10-26 17:12:48 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Try differentiating that
[2008-10-26 17:13:17 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Is it a vagina?
[2008-10-26 17:13:19 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	(Hint: it is 1 + x   (x^2)/2!   (x^3)/3!   ...)
[2008-10-26 17:13:23 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Not really.
[2008-10-26 17:13:32 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	So that's rather cool.
[2008-10-26 17:13:38 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	I learnt that just recently ^^
[2008-10-26 17:13:42 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	I don't know enough math to even ask
[2008-10-26 17:13:46 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	I should have worked it out before though...
[2008-10-26 17:13:53 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	How?
[2008-10-26 17:13:59 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	It is just a polynomial.
[2008-10-26 17:14:25 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Like, say, x^3 + 4*x^2   7x -12
[2008-10-26 17:14:31 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	What is to differentiate?
[2008-10-26 17:14:36 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Except it goes on forever.
[2008-10-26 17:14:54 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Differentiation is the...
[2008-10-26 17:14:56 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	I'm looking it up
[2008-10-26 17:14:58 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	You said derivative?
[2008-10-26 17:15:06 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	You know what it is!
[2008-10-26 17:15:23 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Same thing?
[2008-10-26 17:15:32 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	It's the verb?
[2008-10-26 17:16:09 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	yeah
[2008-10-26 17:16:18 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	That is what I was flailing for.
[2008-10-26 17:16:43 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	I always forget that English isn't your first language...
[2008-10-26 17:16:52 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	You speak (type?) it so well...
[2008-10-26 17:17:08 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Well, it is
[2008-10-26 17:17:16 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	I just don't learn math in English
[2008-10-26 17:17:48 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Which is fair enough
[2008-10-26 17:18:59 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	What other crazy maths facts do you know?
[2008-10-26 17:19:21 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	I had a good one
[2008-10-26 17:19:27 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Something I discoveres
[2008-10-26 17:19:31 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	d*
[2008-10-26 17:19:44 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Go for it
[2008-10-26 17:20:13 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	HoLdOn
[2008-10-26 17:20:25 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	okies
[2008-10-26 17:21:38 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	I can't hold on for long...
[2008-10-26 17:21:39 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Oh, I remember now
[2008-10-26 17:21:43 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	It'll drop off!
[2008-10-26 17:21:55 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	XD
[2008-10-26 17:22:26 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	My friend and I were trying to construct a function that'll calculate !
[2008-10-26 17:22:41 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	What do you call [!] ?
[2008-10-26 17:23:25 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Factorial
[2008-10-26 17:23:35 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Good to know
[2008-10-26 17:23:42 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Factorials have a nice representation in Haskell
[2008-10-26 17:23:52 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	First thing, which is kinda obvious
[2008-10-26 17:24:06 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	fac n :: Integer -> Integer
[2008-10-26 17:24:09 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Is that the function is defined only for natural numbers
[2008-10-26 17:24:15 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	fac 0 = 0
[2008-10-26 17:24:24 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	You can expand it I think...
[2008-10-26 17:24:41 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	fac n = n * fac (n-1)
[2008-10-26 17:25:00 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	And that will calculate all fac values!
[2008-10-26 17:25:10 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	w00t!??
[2008-10-26 17:25:12 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Assuming your computer doesn't die at some point.
[2008-10-26 17:25:18 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Oh, yeah
[2008-10-26 17:25:27 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	I think that it is very cool.
[2008-10-26 17:25:30 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	I just got it, yeah
[2008-10-26 17:25:45 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	You should look up Haskell
[2008-10-26 17:25:48 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	It's mathsy
[2008-10-26 17:26:21 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	[url=http://www.haskell.org/]Here[/url] is a link; also there is a wikibook on it.
[2008-10-26 17:26:40 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Anyway
[2008-10-26 17:27:15 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Since, as you said, every factorial is the previous one times the current interger
[2008-10-26 17:27:37 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	The slope at any given point should be the interger
[2008-10-26 17:27:45 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Get it?
[2008-10-26 17:27:54 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	F'(x) = x
[2008-10-26 17:28:31 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	But it's not a regular function
[2008-10-26 17:28:55 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	What the hell do I get by doing that?
[2008-10-26 17:28:56 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	No
[2008-10-26 17:29:07 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	As it is only defined across the naturals
[2008-10-26 17:29:18 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	You don't really get anything
[2008-10-26 17:29:21 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Right
[2008-10-26 17:29:33 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	One of the requirements for differentiation is continuity
[2008-10-26 17:29:51 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	That is, in the reals
[2008-10-26 17:30:06 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	You can always find a number between any two numbers you choose
[2008-10-26 17:30:26 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	In fact there are an infinite number of numbers between any two numbers you choose
[2008-10-26 17:30:32 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Exept for hole 'n' such
[2008-10-26 17:30:40 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	holes*
[2008-10-26 17:30:48 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	In the reals sorry yeah
[2008-10-26 17:31:14 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	You'd have to look at group theory for a full explanation and understanding...
[2008-10-26 17:31:23 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	I'm not sure if I've done that much yet.
[2008-10-26 17:31:34 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	I fancy food!
[2008-10-26 17:31:38 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	I tihnk I shall go eat
[2008-10-26 17:31:47 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	The haskell must remain unfinished.
[2008-10-26 17:32:09 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	Bonapetit
[2008-10-26 17:33:16 UTC]	<Down Rodeo>	Cheers!
[2008-10-26 17:37:19 UTC]	<eDan Co.>	I wanna tell you that I really learn a lot from you and you changed my view in many fields. I imagine you as a gal, so I think I'm in love.

[2008-10-26 18:16:46 UTC]	<jrkookid>	i thought he hated it
[2008-10-26 18:17:52 UTC]	<xXJigsaw23Xx>	no he was just addicted to FF11 to much
[2008-10-26 18:17:58 UTC]	<jrkookid>	and?
[2008-10-26 18:19:02 UTC]	<xXJigsaw23Xx>	it messed his hard drive up so he quit playin it
[2008-10-26 18:20:23 UTC]	<jrkookid>	lolz
