wait...answer for the problem? - mreeve, on 10/12/2007, -1/+17Apparently this ran in 2004. Sorry for the old post. First time I had seen it and thought it was pretty wild.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13Godbless Digg for making 2 yr old news more popular than Britney's vagina pics.

- HonoredMule, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7ya, that's it...a prime ending in 2.
- laplacian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6this site explains all the google math questions, and yes this is all several years old:
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/news/2004-10-13/google/ - Ramtech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4the way they solve it is insane... i need to do some research... :) i love learning things like this..

I remember reading this on /. when it came out, some people were analyzing their dns servers and found a few numerical domains - gwdigg, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4digg... on the cutting edge of the interweb
- vagarach, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I really don't see the problem with solving the problem. I mean just employ some symbolic computing package to do the grunt work and you're done.
- 1iProd, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Divide by zero etc.

- BigAssSteeeD, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I work for {first 10-digit prime found in consecutive digits of e}.com, and you guys will never get the answer! But i'll give you a hint: what is missing from the equation? What would the equation be like if there were no equation at all?
- scrambled, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The answer is clearly "w".

- websnarf, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Actually you don't know that that sequence of digits is in e (unless you truly worked it out). It has not been established that e is a "normal" number, for example.
- ssdigg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'm sorry can someone explain to me why the answer is not 1000000007? It's prime, and this sequence starts somewhere after the decimal in e .. pretty far down, but it's there ...
What am I missing? - manitoba98xp, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Naw, it's "google" (more appropriately written "g²o²le"). Obviously.
- Ragable, on 10/12/2007, -7/+3Anybody have the answer? ;)
- ungus, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2Woot for Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, herrshuster!
- herrshuster, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2you people who just bury as lame because you can't figure it out...drop dead
- BigAssSteeeD, on 10/12/2007, -6/+0are you serious? 1357927012......DUH!!
- 2L84ME, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1Recruiting purposes, eh? Ooo, the fact that it's 2 years old and that, as "scrubadub" linked to, the answers are all over the internet will probably deem it a waste of time now everyone's figured it out. Must've been pretty cool when it was first put up though.
