Mr roT said...: You should be here. Easter is at the normal time of year instead of like November or whatever.; 4/02/2010 4:17 PM
Tecumseh said...: Actually, the two coincide this year--you, ignoramus, you!; 4/02/2010 4:44 PM
Mr roT said...: Happy Easter then! Good thing your guys got it right finally.

How many tries did they have before getting it right?; 4/02/2010 9:15 PM
Tecumseh said...: It happens once every n years. It's a periodic thing, though n is not fixed, it varies itself. Too complicated a function to describe to you.; 4/02/2010 10:24 PM
Mr roT said...: This was not a great description of the phenomenon, but you did do a nice job of describing your mental state.; 4/02/2010 10:45 PM
Tecumseh said...: Huh? My description is crystal-clear -- or about as clear as I can make it after a shot of single malt, or three. What part of it you don't comprehend?; 4/02/2010 10:53 PM
Mr roT said...: What's $n$ again? An unfixed number. Hmm.; 4/02/2010 10:55 PM
Tecumseh said...: It's a "polynomially periodic" function. A well-defined concept. Just look it up.; 4/02/2010 11:12 PM
Mr roT said...: Just write down the formula or add another VCP to the tab.; 4/02/2010 11:21 PM
Tecumseh said...: Here is the function, on a limited interval. I'll let you figure out a closed formula, as an exercise.; 4/03/2010 2:45 PM
Mr roT said...: Ask Gauss.; 4/03/2010 3:47 PM
