Perhaps you have a fascination with prime numbers.
*ahem* Is someone gonna pick a new number or what?
*is waiting for Delling as well :P*. Last time it was guessed before I could even post, so :P

I chose 17 as it was a prime number from 1 to 20... at first I landed on 13 which I discarded due to it's unlucky character :P (somehow, 11 didn't occur to me)...
I am thinking of a number from 25 to 70. :P

Help us out here. Are you wanting us to guess integers, or irrational numbers?
I'm going to guess 3*3.1415926535897932384626433832.
The number is indeed an integer.
So you're saying it's an integer between 2.71828 and 27.1828? :sneaky:
I'll guess 20.
18
nope

K, I'm gonna guess...
the number you're thinking of.
eleventy-billion
I guess they ran out of things to guess at that point. I find it funny that this thread still has some life to it.
Alright, I am thinking of a number between 5! and one gross. (5! is five factorial)
Lord I hate math.
5! = 120 (5*4= 20 then 20*(2*3)=20*6=120)
One gross is 144. So, it's just 24 numbers to guess from! (assuming we remain confined to integers)
I guess 131...it's almost in the middle of the range and it's prime! ;D
125
Both wrong.
40*pi?
or the floor(40*pi) or the ceiling(40*pi)?
or 125 and 126 respectively?
122
Wrong, wrong, and incorrect.
I guess 135 unless it's wrong in which case I guess whatever is right.
::) My logic is inescapably impeccable.
134
132
134 and 132 are also incorrect.
Quote from: Delling on May 05, 2008, 11:05:37 PMI guess 135 unless it's wrong in which case I guess whatever is right.
It's not
wrong, it's just that the function isn't defined at 135. :P
Wait... so we're dealing with a real-valued function that is discontinuous within the limits you gave us! :o That doesn't seem fair at all... *grumbles*
Then, I choose 1/(135-x) :P
143

Well, it
does approach 135 if you take the limit from the right... :P
No correct answers to date.
With what type of function are we dealing? I mean... should I be concerning myself with Heaviside step functions multiplied to arbitrary functions (you could make just about anything you wanted that way :-\) or am I looking at a simple rational function of some form (you've said it's discontinuous so that rules out a lot of functions actually... for instance, it can't be a normal polynomial or linear function because those would be continuous)... ... ok, it's just way too much fun to drag this math talk out. :P

It's either a tan function, or a sec function, but I can't remember which...

Has 79 been guessed?
72
Both wrong

70
Did no one pay attention to my clue?
If it has to do with your birth, then it would be either 83 or 84...but the top number is 80.
Nope, 83 or 84 would still be wrong (I was born in 82), and it has to do with my DAY of birth, not year. ;)
Quote from: PirateKingChris on May 29, 2008, 03:00:31 PM

Ah! then based on that clue, I shall guess 62.
?? Uh, what?
I was born July 4th. Where'd 62 come from?
74
lol XD I think we have a correct answer XD
No we don't. :P It's still about my date of birth...not necessarily the year. ;)
July = 7
4 = eh, well, 4 :D
7-4, 74 :P I know you're not 33 years old, so :P
Not necessarily the year of MY birth that is. ;)
Nice try Nebel.

your birthday = July 4th
