Yesterday’s Foxtrot comic had a hilarious paint-by-numbers that requires a calculator to be able to complete. Morah did it and there really is a picture in that mess.

That’s cool. I thought about doing it but I decided I have had enough math for a while, doing the books for a store as slow as Cheney Safeway is like taking 6th grade math for the rest of your life. I’ll have to try the paint-by-numbers next week when the stench of addition and subtraction has worn off.
Hehe, glad to see I wasn’t the only one. ^_^ Actually, there’s an error on it. Look in the bottom left quadrant. See the 2261? Is that supposed to be divisible by 17 (orange) or 19 (red), or perhaps a mix of the two? (I think it’s supposed to just be orange)
Did anyone else do the numerical word-search (nerd-search)? (Do a search for “ft051106.gif”)
Speaking of nerds, in January there was a FT comic with binary in it. (“ft060111.gif”) I don’t suppose anyone one _else_ converted it to ascii…? ^_^
Man, when you’re a math/computer nerd like me, FT is the best comic. 😀
I was going to put these up on blogger and link to them, but the log-in page is down right now. Sorry. :-/
@Phoenix – I did notice the 2261 error. -)
Wow! There’s a FoxTrox LiveJournal!

Lastly, although that thread has a painted in version, if anyone wants to still do it themselves, here’s the code snippit I used to give me the answers (just type in the number; CTRL-C quits):
#include
using namespace std;
bool isPrime(int num)
{
if (0==num%2) return ((2==num)?true:false);
for (int i=3; i> n;
if (0==n%13) cout
(although, anyone nerdy enough to do it likely doesn't need the code ^_^)
H’rmm…. might I request a “Preview” button? ^_^
Yeah, about the preview button, I was having trouble with the form retaining the info. It’s on my list of things to fix.
If you post something and it comes it out wonky, e-mail me and I’ll try to fix it.
