pocketquake e-100 not working

[Moose or Chuck]

In that first example you cancelled out the 0's on the left side of the equation. You can't do that, 0/0 does NOT equal one, which is what you showed with:<br>5/0*0=x*0<br>5=x*0<br>

5/5 = 1<br>33/33 = 1<br>1560/1560 =1<br><br>So why wouldn't<br><br>0/0 = 1<br><br>?<br>

[Diego Cueva]

because 0 is nothing<br><br>Imagine a pie... if you dont have a pie, yo-* ok, I will stop now<br>

[Digby]

You guys crack me up.<br>

[Moose or Chuck]

5/5 = 1<br> 0/n = 0<br> thus<br> 0/0 = 0<br><br>That's the most rudimentary concept of elementary algebra.

[Diego Cueva]

yep

[randall]

that is basic, except for the fact that you can't divide by zero.<br><br>I still think Digby explained it the best, with the most simplistic math and concept. I thought that even the "powerbrain" of Moose could understand, but I was obviously mistaken.

[SkaBoss]

I guess it depend on perspective x/0 could be infinite because you're deviding by nothing however by that same token it could be null because...well just dont think pies.  Anyways my re-iterative $.02.

[Moose or Chuck]

randall, it doesn't matter that you can't divide by 0, 0 over anything is still zero, because you have nothing of whatever amount is on the bottom, you can easily have nothing from nothing...<br><br>except, if you have nothing from nothing, you have a whole nothingness- NO! It's still 0, because 0 above anything is zero.<br>But it's too early. I'm going back to sleep.

[SkaBoss]

Yep but since it does ever matter or apply its open for discussion here ;D

[R0B]

Well, the truth is, it all depends on what logic you want to look at it with.  x/0 could be a number of things, that is all I wanted to show you.  But for the purpose of this board, I vote to keet it as 0/0 (infinite).

[SkaBoss]

THats what I was trying to say

[Jaybot]

You're confusing the point.  You need to shift your focus off of the zero.  You see,  x/0=y , therefore anything divided by zero is y.  

[Jaybot]

Btw, a GAPI for the E-100/105 already exists.  Try that.

[R0B]

Really?  By who?  In Larry's, it doesn't refrence it, but I could be wrong.  Does anyone want me to post my source somewhere?  It would be a great start for anyone working on an HPCPro port.
