Where's Unne when you need him.
well if you use a calculator it equals the same number .999999... so I guess it's .000001 to short, no matter the number of 9's that go on, it will always be short by .1 of being equal to 1. or am I wrong?
Yes, because the number of 9s that go on is infinite, therefore the number of 0s before a 1 that it would take to get the number up to 1 is infinite, therefore it takes .0000000~ to get to 1, which means that .99999~ = 1.Quote:

If you say yes, then you are saying that 1 = 2 and 3 = 7,302 and 1,304,632 = -42.Quote:

:spin: Refute that with something more complicated and I most likely won't understand you anyway. :spin:
Sure, use this one.Quote:

Yes, .999...! = 1.
.999999 = .99 repeating
.99 rounded = 1
I suck at math.
I refuse to grace math with my wonderful presence.
What is the question to the ultimate answer of life, the univers and everything?
I don't really know what you just asked. What is the meaning of life and the answer to the universe?
Easily the result is 42.
