Dude. Tep, you're mathier than I am. I didn't get it until you explained it, though the egg crates and I were getting there.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What is the purpose of base eight?
I will be useful if we ever have to do math with cartoon characters or eight-fingered aliens.

Whoo! You're good, Steph. (Although, my mathiness wishes point out, 1 is in fact a power of two, because anything raised to the 0 power is 1. But I know what you mean.)

Even 0?
How about a cat?
(Actually, 0^0 =1, right? God, my memory sucks.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Steph has made me miss the days when I was bright and math was fun and easy and exciting.
