OT: a semi mathmatical puzzle 4 u - Mike Reed - 02-04-2013 The following is a rhyming poem, in English. Can you solve it??
(12 + 144 + 20 + (3 * 4^(1/2))) / 7) + (5 * 11) = 9^2 + 0

Regards. Re: OT: a semi mathmatical puzzle 4 u - Mike Reed - 02-05-2013 Thank you Valentin! I hadn't thought of that possibility. It is so noted as Valentin has stated above!
Re: OT: a semi mathmatical puzzle 4 u - Ken Shaw - 02-05-2013 You have an unmatched parenthesis there.
Is that intentional?
Re: OT: a semi mathmatical puzzle 4 u - John B. Smitherman - 02-05-2013 Parentheses? Why isn't this an RPN puzzle? ;-)
Re: OT: a semi mathmatical puzzle 4 u - Mike Reed - 02-05-2013 No, it isn't... Chalk it up to my muscular dystrophy. I'm reduced to one-handed typing on a Dvorak Right-hand-only keyboard, and make MANY double strike typographical mistakes. Please ignore the odd parenthesis. mike

((12 + 144 + 20 + (3 * 4^(1/2))) / 7) + (5 * 11) = 9^2 + 0 Edited: 6 Feb 2013, 10:57 a.m.

4 ENTER .5 y^x 3
