I mean, so long as you stick with integers, if you start with the same numbers and run them through the same operations then you will end up with the same results regardless of whether you did it on paper or in a computer. Things get a little weird once you start going into floating point, but I contend that that's a difference in implementation/representation, not in math. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
