I'm going to use the original post as a chat up line around town tomorrow night.
With gusset-soaking lyrics like that, I'll struggle to fight the hos off with a shitty stick.

Asymptotes just deal with infinites too. I think you are right for every model we have to explain it. but I still think of 1 as a pure concept which can't be touched by any recurring 9 and I think of 0.9r as another concept too.
It does. It definitely equals 1. I also agree that 0.9r and 1 are completely different concepts. Hence, that is why the are expressed differently. All I'm saying is that they represent the same value. I.E. you have 0.9r heads, you have 0.9r brains. 0.9r doesn't equal 1 in terms of expression but they represent the same value. That is mathematical fact.

Ah yes, a more cleverer way of putting it.

I was thinking about writing a ballad based around it, it's a sure fire number 1. Now when I say 1...

OH!
Another problem that caught my eye was that if, say, someone was completely randomly punching letters on a keyboard for an infinite length of time, they'd almost surely (a mathematical phrase that basically means 'definitely') type out any given text, such as this post.

0.9 recurring isn't 1. if it was, there would be no need for the 9 to keep recurring. the 0.8 recurring would be nine. You'd get so far down as to say 0=0.1 when it doesnt, as 0 is bound by it's nothingess.

I'm also going to stroll into Poundland, buy something, slap 99p on the counter and tell the woman to 'keep the change' before winking at her and strutting out nonchalantly, secure in the knowledge that bluemoon maths club has turned me into a stone cold Mac Daddy packing a hard yard in my strides ...gaudinho's stolen car said:LongsightM13 said:I'm going to use the original post as a chat up line around town tomorrow night.

doesnt everyone know this as the infinite monkeys typing Shakespeare?
So now we have cleared all this jazz up about 0.9 recurring..
What's pi?

0.9 recurring infinitely can never equal 1 by definition, surely?
