a, b, c and d are integers with diffrent values.
What are the values of a, b, c and d.
(There may be more than one correct answer)
;)Code:int a, b, c, d;
a = 1;
b = 2;
c = 3;
d = 4;
if ( (a*b*c*d) == 12 )
{
printf("Easy...\n");
}
error error sterilize......Quote:

...*scratching* ... Man, I just blamed myself... Sorry guess I do not know what confuses me that bad the last days. No it's not beer... It might be the women... :sick:. Thanks Tom...Quote:

Won't that be 1,111 ? :rolleyes: If the number of digits is more than 4 keep adding 9 at the start !!
No. Think again.Quote:

11^11 (11 to the power of 11)?
Exactly correct.Quote:

When he enters his tent. He sees a bear inside.
Now what colour is the bear?? :cool:
uninhabitated location, and a bear there?
I meant uninhabitated by human beings ;) (Any way the whole situation is hypothetical)
white... it must be a bear at the noth pole...
am i right??
Absolutely.
But in case John was a bit drunk, it could be even black or brown. Or may be it was his partner Harry ;) :D :D :D
hey, you never said he is been drinking... :DQuote:

I don't know... so I cheated... and google tells me that this is a trick question. German words can be made as long as you want them to be because they allow for the addition of new elements. Or something...
I did find:
Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitaensfrauenverbandsvorsitzendenaufwandsentschaedigungsrahmenordnungsrichtlinienen
That's absolutly correct ;)Quote:

A bit late, but if we are allowed to use math symbols, an infinately large number can be generated with two or more ones via:
((11!)!)!... etc.
To attone for my smart a$$ answer, I offer this quiz:
Name the former Billboard top-40 hit with the largest prime number in the title.

I wonder there would ever be any song which could contain the largest known prime number. :rolleyes: 2^25964951 - 1
See this
My guess is 1999 by Prince or whatever he calls himself these days.
-Ben
An excellent guess, but wrong. Think about three orders of magnitude higher.

8675309 Jenny?
Can you find out the biggest number using four 1s?
Didn't they answer this one all ready?Quote:

factorial a negative number??
how about...
-(11! ^ 11!)
lets not use factorials?
-(1111! ! ! ! ...)
oh, is english factorial a '^' or '!' ?
without !'s it would be -11^11 i think
Jenny 8675309 is the correct answer to my question.

uhhh... if we're discussing magnitude, -11^11 would still be pretty big. Any physics geeks out there? Negative pressure is suction, negative velocity is backwards... magnitude AND direction.
I'd go with 11^(-11) or 11-11.
This is the history of the puzzle ,they say so...
This is the Puzzle given by Micro Soft Recruitment team to recruit one
of their Deputy CEO and the time given is 15 min... (Maximum) and the
minimum time is..... Depends upon the person's IQ...
Best of luck..
