This is a "must-do" for a mathematician. To use such solutions for an open problem is in general the job of engineers. I use as desktop the base 15 clock that shows the number of full quarters in the first digit and the numbers filling the next quarter in the second digit. Quarters of an hour are my "fuzzy" measure of time. But -- a lot of 'Geeks' use other number base-coded decimals (not only for dateAndTime display). And the Mayas and Aztecs used number base 20. Now try to read, say for simplicity a hex-clock using "A,B,C,D,E,F" for 10,11,12,13,14,15". For example the MAC address clock here: http://hyperhh.de/html5/MACaddressTime-8.0.2X.html (click to start). And compare to my format. Most kids of age 10 and older can read, with a few minutes of exercise, hex numbers with my format every second. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
