Asymptotic Nonsense

1200-year-old problem ‘easy’ | 12.6.06

Dr James Anderson, from the University of Reading’s computer science department, says his new theorem solves an extremely important problem - the problem of nothing.

…

But Dr Anderson has come up with a theory that proposes a new number - ‘nullity’ - which sits outside the conventional number line (stretching from negative infinity, through zero, to positive infinity).

Funny that Dr. Anderson should use the term “nullity.” I guess he is probably asymptotically correct. No doubt he believe that c is achievable despite the equation to the contrary… Perhaps he needs to review L’Hôpital’s Rule.

Hat tip Seann.
