  1. There's really quite a lot to it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression can probably give you some insight.
  2. No, I know that there are an infinite number. Wouldn't have even bothered anyone if I thought the result would be of finite length. At this point based on imatfaal's helpful post, I'm amending my question to be regarding the decimal form instead. Also trying to figure out how/if it can be expressed as the sum of an infinite series. I was able to make a sort of programming loop version. Can't exactly define the infinite array it utilizes, nor provide it with the infinite memory and time needed; but were those things possible, it would work beautifully.
  3. Can you explain a little about what you mean by warping?
  4. The text you pasted had line breaks already in it. The forum simply translated those into HTML code and from there into LaTeX. You have to put it all on a single line to get rid of them. This is the Codecog's method I was talking about: Programs only do what they are told to do, you just have to tell them exactly what you want.
  5. A computer is a literal genie. Looking at it, you can use the WordPress selection at the bottom and it'll show up correctly for here. Rather than say, copy from the upper textarea, which I suspect we're all in the habit of doing.
  6. [latex] \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_{11}}} & {{a_{12}}} & {{a_{13}}} \\ {{a_{21}}} & {{a_{22}}} & {{a_{23}}} \\ {{a_{31}}} & {{a_{32}}} & {{a_{33}}} \\ \end{array}} \right) [/latex] You have to put all the latex code on one line. <br> is the HTML line break tag. Is kind of weird that it renders it though.
  7. I really hate when you do a search and the first result is your own post.

      If you are using Google, their algorithm, I think, searches stuff related to you. Since the post is related to your account, it will bring it up as a first result.

      hmm, that could be the reason.

  8. ^Yeah, that was the basic idea(known & unknowns). I'm just not sure of what all the properties of such a number would be. I am glad my thought process was on the right track at least.
  9. What if we modified it to 2.3571113... instead? I was just thinking something akin to Pi, to have a look at and make some observations of.
  10. Stupid question, would a constant composed of all the primes 23571113... be an irrational number? I've been thinking it would be, but wanted to double check.
  11. There are dry capture webs out there. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cribellum One of the videos I saw before was similar to this: You can see the web moving towards the oppositely charged insect. Interesting to ponder at any rate.
  12. http://io9.com/5986189/flowers-communicate-with-electricity Not sure on spider webs probably something similar though.
  13. The memory was still rattling around in your brain somewhere. The brain is great about retention once memories make it to long term storage and barring any physical damage to the network. You did eventually become aware of it after all, if in an oddball fashion. Human brains misinterpret some things, they make up others, and they blatantly lie to us all the time. That is the way it is. Your brain compared to the considered norm is functioning differently than most. I can tell you that much. If you are seeking a proper diagnoses, I would say see different psychiatrists depending on someone you trust accessing your need.
  14. There is the similar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypnagogia#Sounds Which I myself have experienced. As long as you hold on to the fact that everything is either internal to your brain or a misinterpreted external input, then you won't lose your sense of reality. You are probably seeing into your brain's editing stage. These inputs arrive and need processing before the brain can present them to you as a coherent narrative of events.
  15. There's no connection to the brain for the artificial devices. there's even external ones that can move blood around. You don't necessarily need a pump inside your body.
  16. That makes sense. I've studied some of the other puzzles of math(palindromic numbers, division by zero) but hadn't worked with prime numbers to the same degree.
  17. Many of the ones incorporated into our genome predate ourselves as a species, so I'm not sure how to answer that one. HIV probably has the best chance for something more recent occurring. Bacteria are another means by which horizontal transfer can occur.
  18. Looking at it several of the numbers at the end fall into that same boat. I'm thinking they all may be the end result of the multiplication of one or more prime numbers, but I haven't tested that. Ironically, 1000 itself is not on the generated list since I started n at 0.
  19. You can use: m*m - m*n - m*n - n*n instead of needing an additional rule for multiplying a negative by a negative. 1st 1000: code utilized: note: you posted -61 instead of -71 for m=5, n=6
  20. Careful with that one. The retroviruses transfer their own DNA along with DNA from other species. It is the latter which is of real value as it has undergone different selective pressures than our own.
  21. US rejects Cuba demand to hand back Guantanamo Bay base I was wondering how long this would take to come up.
  22. Looking at it, it is mostly concerned with the freeloader problem and at-risk populations associating amongst themselves(increasing their risk). We do see posts of similar nature and treat them all the same way. It comes off across as another kind of spam with only an abstract and a link. Have to provide some meat for discussion.
  23. During mitosis the individual mitochondria end up roughly distributed between the two cells. They largely replicate at a rate independent of that of the cell they are in. They utilize mtDNA also known as mDNA or simply Mitochondrial DNA. For humans during sexual reproduction, the offspring most typically only inherits the mother's mitochondria.
  24. Have you worked with any artificial life programs? Decent ones will run just as long as you feel like letting them without entering into any kind of loop. Programs adapting forcing other programs to adapt is the main key(digital version of the Red Queen Hypothesis). If the search space isn't static then a 'final' solution will never be reached.
  25. I tend to think of mass as seeking to move towards the bottom of 'valleys' in space-time it creates around itself. Obviously though it is not just mass which is impacted as light can end up bending from our POV as well.
