    Although, to be honest, everybody is a geek. Everyone has some hobby that they are passionate about. It's just that some hobbies have been labelled as being more geeky than others.

    As with all rounding procedures, if the number directly to the right of the digit to be rounded to is less than five, the digit stays the same; if more than five, the digit is rounded up. However, to always round up or down if the digit is equal to exactly five would skew data in one direction or the other. Thus, when using the significant figures system and rounding in such situation, the even-odd rule is used: round in whichever direction would make the last digit of the final product even. For example:


    6m x 0.75m must be rounded to one significant figure
    4.5m2 should be rounded to 4, since 4 is even

    14m / 4m must be rounded to one significant figure
    3.5 should be rounded to 4, since 4 is even

    In this way, the even-odd rule avoids skewing data either upwards or downwards

    cool












    oh dear god how could i just say that was cool


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,698 ✭✭✭✭BlitzKrieg


    i thought the odd/even rule was that every odd star trek film would be sh1te while the even ones would be good or passable or some word u use.


    (argued recently broken by nemises)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 986 ✭✭✭wild_eyed


    the odd numbered movies ,i.e. (1, 3, 5 ......) are usually rubbish
    while the even munbered one's (2,4,6,8.....) are half good and infact enjoyable.

    but u got to watch them all to judge.

    I am actually worried. Thsi si not healthy, I am a young attractive man, interesting, diverse in intrests, woman love me, I am witty and popular. How can I have scored so high nad yet live the life that I live?

    What is even scarier, I've scored the highest of anyone who has posted here.
    Oh I am doomed, doomed, DOOMED. Go home now!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,230 ✭✭✭scojones


    YES! someone go higher than i did. *does the chandler dance rather excessively*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,446 ✭✭✭Havelock


    Its not healthy to get that high a score. Its just wrong. Bet the machine messed up, yeah thats it, it was a function error in the action script. People will believe that...hopefully.
