Alright, so here's how the game is played:
You're trying to make as many numbers as possible using 4 4's or less, in an attempt to try to prove an old theory: "You can make any whole number using only four instances of the number four and commonly used mathematical symbols." So so far, the symbols allowed are: 1. All standard mathematical operators (+-*/) 2. Factorials (n! = n * (n-1) * (n-2) * ... * 2 * 1) 3. Square roots, arbitrary roots (the index is included in the 4 4's) 4. Repeat signs (denoted with an apostrophe ' or grave accent `, ex. 0.3` = 0.33333.....) 5. Exponentiation (denoted with a caret ^, 2^8 = 2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2, 8 2's) 6. Decimals do not require a leading zero. So you could put .4 instead of 0.4. I'll start: 0 = 4-4 1 = 4/4 2 = sqrt(4) 3 = 4 - 4/4 4 = 4 5 = 4 + 4/4 6 = 4 + sqrt(4) 7 = 4 + 4 - 4/4 8 = 4 + 4 9 = 4 + 4 + 4/4 10 = 4 + 4 + sqrt(4) And the next person would continue from 11, 12, and so on, and introduce new symbols and explaining them if necessary. |
