7-8=1-1-1

Hmm...you're all doing a lot better than I expected at this stage, not counting a few errors like this one

0^0=1, which is fine, but any number divided by zero is certainly not zero, you fool! Put simply, as you divide a number by a smaller and smaller number, the result is larger and larger, meaning that when you divide by what is essentially the smallest number, 0, (not counting negatives) the result is infinity, or ∞. I hope you nincompoops don't expect that kind of nonsense mathematics to fly in MY laboratory!

Sorry everyone for Professor Slowking's rudeness, you uhh... know how he is...

Oh and that uhh... reminds me, if you think you've uhh... reached one of the solution milestones (25, 50, 100 etc.) then uhh... be sure to PM @Ice Espeon and let him know!​

I'm terribly sorry professor! please accept this humble apology:
0+0+0+0=0

Well, while it technically is impossible to properly define, some mathematicians claim that it still should count as 1, as certain formulas would get overly complex otherwise.

9/(8+1)=5/5

From what I know it doesn't really seem like a claim by some, more like a fact of mathematics that many believe and follow. As far as I know it is widely accepted by pretty much all mathematicians. At least that is what I have been taught/told. If you have a different belief/understanding I would be really interested to know what it is, or how to find out more (my searches have turned up no differing opinions, although to be honest I am not really sure what to search to find out)

7-7=3*5*0

EDIT: sorry, I am not trying to come across with any emotion in what I said, but I am not really sure how to word it to reflect that, I am just really interested in this topic now :/

Oh no, this is not good for me, you have thrown me into yet another blog I have to regularly check :/

Thanks for sharing, this is really interesting, and not something people that I know talk about

Can't you guys just ignore the posts that aren't part of the game? :p

(7+2)/9=5-4
