A random experiment

[Ryaja]

I want to see what everyone here gets if they pick a random number 1-10. Only natural numbers.

(Read what is in the spoiler after picking a number)

To many people suck at following instructions I hope you did

I picked seven T. T

I'm so boring.

Rule number one of doing a blind study: Never give the testees access to any info regarding the outcome.   You might have skewed your numbers a bit.

Will just hope they know how to follow the instructions inside the parentheses

The shown results

6s, 7s, 8s, 10s

tell us that the nerd herd is showing off

by trying to avoid the "trivial", "plebeian", obvious numbers.

My 1 was #1.

I picked the number closest to the number i choose when asked to pick a rando number in the 0-10 range. No one expects you to choose a wholly irrational number. But my question is: does picking an irrational number for questions such as this make me rationally irrational or irrationally rational? Or am i being irrationally rational about being rational or rationally irrational about being rational? Oof my head hurts. Enjoy my irrational friend: 3.1415926535897932384626433

Oh, remember it.

Together with the Phoenicians we use 22/7 for calculations in head.

(
a * 2 = obvious

ab * 11 = a{a+b}b

a / 7 = also not something specuial, and also = *sqrt(2) / 10
)

No, I did this in one of my classes and choose pi too but we could only do whole numbers
