Title: Re: Do you know what 65536 is? Post by: Brian Fein on February 23, 2006, 04:57:39 pm is this one of those stupid things that nerd write and think they're cool like "l33t"?
Otherwise, I'd say its the MS Excel date code for 6/5/2079 Title: Re: Do you know what 65536 is? Post by: Brian Fein on February 23, 2006, 04:58:16 pm The only time I've ever seen that number is in the line limitation of excel files. CRAP, that's what I was thinking...

Title: Re: Do you know what 65536 is? Post by: Brian Fein on February 23, 2006, 05:02:23 pm I've seen the bottom many times, just never memorized the number.
I think the last column is like IA or something... Title: Re: Do you know what 65536 is? Post by: Fau Teixeira on February 23, 2006, 05:06:21 pm 1 - it's a Fermat number .. which is (65537 (a Fermat prime) -1) according to the formula: 2^(2^n) n being 4 in this case so 65536 is 2^(2^4) or 2^(16)
2 - amount of bytes commonly referred to as 64 megs 3 - a zip code in lebanon, MO .. (near springfield) Title: Re: Do you know what 65536 is? Post by: jtex316 on February 23, 2006, 05:07:18 pm Fau you are officially the biggest nerd on the planet.
