Todays date looks cool!

It’s a mirror image of itself, and in Binary to boot! This is probably my most mundane and pointless post to date.

[sub]psssttt[/sub] It’s called a palindrome when it’s the same forward as is backwards.

Can you call it a palindrome if it’s just numbers? Or does it have to be letters(i.e. a word)?

I always thought you could but I just looked up the meaning of palindrome and it doesn’t say that it refers to numbers just words. So my bad. Go ahead stone me, but not with that really big rock. I’m sorry. I’ll go now.

Some mathematicians use the word palindrome to refer to any sequence of characters that reads the same backwords and forwards. So fie on the dictionary, it’s a palindrome!

FWIW, I think it’s 45 in binary.

Yes. It’s also -35 in base -2.

I’ve heard references to “palindromic numbers” in the past. I think the dictionary definition has been adopted by the math community to include cool numbers as well.

Yeah poopy on the dictionary! They suck anyway with all those big words and stuff!

You’re so lucky. On this side of the pond we have to wait until 10 November for a palindromic date. Enjoy.

pah, but when it does become 10 november, we’ll show them! We’ll show the all. Hahahahahahaha

Didn’t anyone else get excited on 10.02.2001? (1002/2001)

I had a ytrap/party!

And as an added bonus, our American friends have 22 February, 2002 to look forward to. As an exceptional measure, we should be allowed to have 22 months next year.

Maybe I’m taking this too far.

What about 11 years ago?
