thx, it was fun and the channel was starting to grow.
It was fun to create the animations in Python to visualize math concepts but it required lots and lots of work … creating the script, creating the animations, making the voice overs, editing the video … it really takes a lot of work (and YouTube pays you almost nothing). Now I keep teaching math but I also produce math videos for an italian book editor, I have less freedom but at least I get paid.
I am subscribed btw ![]()
ok i just saw this,but there is a nuber other than zero that is equal to zero , its like a backwards 3 and i think that 0.99999+(backwards 3)=1,so its not 1,but it is infinitely close,like how you never truly place something on a nuberling because you are always a atom or two off,so mathmatically:no,but if you are not pedantic,yes 0.9999 = 0
i assume you meant 0.9999… = 1?
Also its called epsilon btw
yeah, for all non pedantically exact calculations,.9999…=1(but in pedanticness, it is not)
it is actually the inverse … if you wanna be pedantic they are exactly the same.
pretty sure a lot of people on cl are subbed, or maybe just us
btw, in my channel I also have a video where a do a 3.14 km wheelie
while explaining the formulas to calculate π:
Something a bit crazy I made 2 years ago.
My record is actually longer: a 15.5 km wheelie.

You are a crazy man.
that is just impressive at that point
do a mole wheelie for Mole Day (October 23)
it depends on the measure unit we use for lengths …
if we measure length using the planck length, then Avogadro * Plank Length=
6.0221408e23 * 1.616255e−35 = 9 * 10^12 m = 9 picometers
therefore the wheelie woud be the millionth part of a millimiter … quite easy.
i meant to say kilometers… oops.
Do tree(tree(tree(3))) miles wheelie
baby distance. do a tree(tree(tree(3))) quettameter wheelie
Maybe at that point he just doesn’t do a wheelie ![]()
0.999… = x Given
9.999… = 10x Multiplication Property of Equality
9 + 0.999… = 10x Additive Decomposition
9 + x = 10x Substitution
9 = 9x Subtraction Property of Equality
1 = x Division Property of Equality
0.999… = 1 Transitive Property
This is my take on the question:
x=0.999…
10x=9.999…
10x-x=9.999…-0.999…
10y-y=9y
9x=9
1x=1
x=1
Thus, 0.999… is 1.
