Guess the number

**Lseadragon** · 08-25-2007 10:13 AM

I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 500. First person to guess it wins 2 points. Only your first answer in a post counts.

**Man of Steel** · 08-25-2007 10:15 AM

The Answer is 42.

**Keeper** · 08-25-2007 10:31 AM

499

**Adam** · 08-25-2007 10:32 AM

147

**Lseadragon** · 08-25-2007 12:29 PM

No to all three answers.

**derb** · 08-25-2007 12:30 PM

376?

**Universal Mind** · 08-25-2007 12:31 PM

377?

**Lseadragon** · 08-25-2007 12:35 PM

No to those two.

**one** · 08-25-2007 01:13 PM

maybe its 369

**one** · 08-25-2007 01:29 PM

the number = x
meaning: its basic algebra foo i learnt this in yr 7

Code:

int answer;
while(answer != theAnswer){
answer = Math.random(500);
}

**TweaK** · 08-25-2007 10:14 PM

Code:

<?php
for($i = 0; $i < 501; $i++) echo $i . "<br />";
?>

It's a number somewhere in there.

Only the first guess in each post counts. So TweaK, yours is 1, and arby, yours is 345. Nither are right.

What a terrible script. It only has a 0.2% chance of working.

Noo. It runs until it finds the answer.

Not if it only gets one chance to run. Besides, wouldn't it make more sense for it to just go through the list? The most numbers it would have to guess that way would be 500...

**Man of Steel** · 08-26-2007 04:37 AM

No, in fact, the Answer is 42. I am not wrong.

Though your question might be the wrong one, now that I think about it. "Guess the number," doesn't really sound much like the Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything, come to think of it...

What about 56? Is that it?

The answer is whatever lseadragon wants it to be. If I say 1 he says 2, if I say 2 he says WRONG! its 143, so there's no right answer unless you want to trust another human which only wants himself to be right and for this thread to grow in replys. I would at least appriciate the number be written down first, but yeah...this is just a forum.

Oh well, that was all jibberish, is it 12 by any chance?

No, there actually is an answer. When somebody gets it, I will tell them. And seriously, where could i write it down without someone finding it?

Nobody has got it yet.
