P=2∏N*T*1,34*10(-3power)
------------------------------------
60

Where P=255, solve for T...

 

∏....what is this symbol?

 

pie? 3.14

 

Tom gottit right. Not a big math-fan, huh, BF?

FTR, the formula came outta a Audi ad in this months' MotorTrend. Usually I prefer to read C/D, but M/T hadda pretty good article about the next 'Stang GT500.

 

actually, i am a pretty big math fan, believe it or not....and for the record, it's pi. i've just never seen a pi that looks like that before....where i'm from this is pi:

 

Hey, I work with the characters the 'puter gives me... Don't be a math snob.

 

haha, alright, alright. i guess i should've known that it was pi anyway...but i don't ever do math on computers....

 

Me either. The character-set doesn't support higher functions, unless you have math-specific software, which I obviously don't. Now that I think about it, aside from calculating (in my head) my (roughly) current mileage, and the occassional rolling total while I shop, I don't do math EVER!

 

Actually the Pi you used is a capital Pi, it typically denotes a product, i.e. �*A_i = A_1 * A_2 * A_3 * ... A_n (those of you farmilar with Sigma, notation should recognize the concept) lower case Pi, π, denotes the ratio between circumfrance and diameter of a circle, 3.141...

Now what is that equation all about? I.e. what does P, T, etc stand for?

Thanks

mj, i'm officially convinced that you're the most intelligent person on this forum.......

where do you guys get these pi symbols from on your computer? is it in a program or a font or what?
