Oh JLo, I'm so sorry. He's in good hands, just let the vet do his thing and don't panic until there's something to panic about. Okay?Quote:

Crossing my fingers for little Pete and you. Hugs to you both.
Don't go borrowing trouble Jlo,just wait and see what happens,its upsetting enough with thinking of 'what ifs'
I could not find your post on pete,can you throw up a link?

Another strange thing - when I woke him to take him to the vets he didn't get excited about the car ride and he wasn't able to jump in the car by himself.
He looked so healthy in your recent pictures,anything I say would not help Jlo.
I hope and pray he is OK and the vet can get to the bottom of the problem.
I know. This morning was the first time I noticed any problems with him. It's so hard not to panic. :oQuote:

Happy positive thoughts.
Well,try a little.
I'll try. I'm going to go get some lunch and take a walk along the river. Hope I didn't ruin everyone's day.Quote:

Well, I'm logging off now. Tomorrow tuition at 1.15 pm, I'll get about 4 hours from morning to complete my homework. Gosh, there are so much!
Night everyone :)
Be strong JLo :)

I know you're worried, but you're worrying isn't going to change anything. Think positive thoughts. Pete's where he needs to be. I'm sure the vet will do everything in his power to make him well again.Quote:

Promise? I will kick butt if you don't. ;)
With all this talk about pregnancy and getting pregnant, you might enjoy this:
Well, SOMETIMES... people pat my crotch and tell me, "good job..."

I know they have an even number of prime factors (225 = 3x3x5x5) but what are the factors that is referred to with the statement that perfect squares have an odd number of factors? :confused:
Def: Factor Mathematics One of two or more quantities that divides a given quantity without a remainder.
Watch this: 4: Factors are 2 2 and 1; Odd
225 = 3x3x5x5x1; Odd
Forgot "1"
As Kiss says.
Factorisation includes 1. Prime factorisation excludes 1. Since 1 is not classed as a prime.* Thus perfect squares have odd factors but even prime factors.
You might sometimes be asked for distinct factors or distinct prime factors. (as in if a number features several times you only count the same number once).
e.g. 4=2x2 (x1) : 3 factors (2,2,1), 2 prime factors(2,2), 2 distinct factors(2,1) but only 1 distinct prime factor(2). Just mentioned that in case it ever comes up.
*The definition of a prime number is a natural number that has exactly two distinct natural number divisors. Thus 1 has only one distinct natural number divisor, 1, so is excluded.
Heck that last sentence reads like Chinese, even to a mathematician, hope you follow Unky I couldn't work out how else to put it lol.
I understand now thanks! :) (Don't worry, I understand Chinese ;))
But then, something else bug me... numbers such as 6 too have odd number of factors then, 1, 2 and 3. So, there are other numbers, besides perfect squares with an odd number of factors, right?
I could list many more :p (10, 14, 15, 21, 22, 26, etc)
But I think once you reach the triple digits, you're limited to just perfect squares.Quote:

And I could go on. This happens every time you multiply a prime number by another prime number. You get the factors as one prime number, the other prime number and 1. Well, this can get into an odd number of different prime numbers being multiplied together... (eg 11x13x17x19x1 I better not work out the product :o)
Sorry for hi-jacking the thread :o
Oops, that's why math has never been a love of mine. I'm good at it, but I simply follow the easiest path to get to the answer and don't bother putting in more work than that.
Maybe I'm looking a little too far too... :(
I'm just trying to find some shortcuts.
For example, we know that if the last digit in a number is divisible by 2, then no matter what the number is, it'll be divisible by 2.
We know that if adding all the digits in a number comes to a number divisible by 3, then, the number is divisible by 3.
For 4, we look whether the two last digits are divisible by 4.
For 5, once the last digit is either 0 or 5, it's divisible by 5.
For 9, once the digits adds up to a number divisible by 9, it's divisible by 9.
For 10, 100, etc, so long there are enough zeros, they are divisible.
For 25, so long the last two digits are 00, 25, 50 or 75, they are divisible by 25.
That's all I know about how to check for factors... :(
Afraid I'm going out shortly Unky, then off early tomorrow for a trip to see son and help him move. My legs are still like bambi's from the flu so I'm going to be pulling on all my reserves for the rest of the weekend.
Can't see anything wrong with your reasoning above but not able to give it much thought atm.
Yes numbers other than perfect squares can have odd number of factors, not sure if there'e any more rules I can think of relating to that but will give it some thought when I'm not rushig around. The rule is useful when you know one of a set of numbers is a perfect square as in the problem you set but can't think of anything off-hand that makes it really useful the other way around if you see what I mean.
Promise to think some more after the weekend.
No worries, I have until Thursday. Go enjoy yourself tomorrow :)
OK I was thinking while doing my hair. Female multitasking lol.
Here's some more Unky:
Take the last digit, double it, and subtract it from the rest of the number;
if the answer is divisible by 7 then the number is also.
e.g.. Take 1491. 1x2 = 2. 149-2 = 147 147/7 = 21 so we know 1491 divides by 7. (1491/7 = 213).
It the last 3 digits of a number divide by 8 then the whole number divides by 8.
Ok really got to run, see you next week with more if I can.
Cya next time, and thanks! :)
I really like having a dog in the house. I think Camille does too!
What a freaky look on Camille's face! :eek:
well, she certainly doesn't seem to want the dog to LEAVE ^_^Quote:
