aren't .7 and .70 the same?

apparently my teacher begs to differ on that. she says .70 is set in the hundreths place. thats dumb. the calculator corrects .70 as the tenths place.

That is why your Teacher is still teaching. Tell her I said that!
@swirlie: it was an insult i see but i dont get it ...
@Bohemianbrassstrings:

No, it was not intended to be construed as an insult at all. There is an old adage that states, "Those who do not know, teach".

That old adage was never intended to be construed as an insult toward Professional Teachers, but it does speak volumes about our progression in life. The reason we teach something, is because we have not Mastered it.

When we Master something, not only do we no longer have a inner need to keep doing it, we no longer have a need to teach it either. When something is Mastered to the core, it is released from us.
@swirlie: *japanese bow* that was pure japanese theory wow. very nicely played. check mate. i like that and will ALWAYS remember that THANK YOU!
@Bohemianbrassstrings:

Oh, you're welcome!
@swirlie: This unscientific and baseless reply being voted best answer tells you a lot about both of you.
@Existentior:

You are obviously the type of macho guy who is a cry baby deep down inside. I feel very sorry for you, you poor little man.

'Bohemianbrassstrings', I would officially like to put on record that I am voluntarily forfeiting my "Best Answer" ribbon to 'Existentior' so that he can go home to his mother with the prize he most probably said he would win for the family. His mother will then be very proud of him. Far be it from me to stand between 'Existentior' and a green ribbon.

Please remove my name from the roster and put Existentior's name in my place so that the intelligence and maturity of his own answer can shine through, making it obvious to everyone here as well as at his home, precisely 'why' he should win this 'Best Answer' contest, 'hands down'. Thank you.

Yours sincerely,
Ms. swirlie
He'll get over it. @swirlie:
