.99999 does not equal 1

So now you guys are saying that 0.8888.. does equal 0.9999..

You guys should take math 101.

I am Prego.

0.111... = 1/9
0.222... = 2/9
0.333... = 3/9
0.444... = 4/9
0.555... = 5/9
0.666... = 6/9
0.777... = 7/9
0.888... = 8/9
0.999... = 9/9 = 1
1.111... = 1 1/9

etc...

Actual the lack of reference to cooking, cleaning or sewing is the no girls allowed sign.

Except you skip 1.0000... 

A pattern that skips an obvious step is not a pattern.
Ie a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, k is not the pattern implied.

Trekky is trying to imply a decaredundo pattern, ie 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0 but instead delivers a disrupted pattern, otherwise known as an anomaly, something that should raise questions and desire an explanation. So I raise the question, please explain why you skip 1.000000.

Exactly, it should go
...
0.9999
1.0000
1.1111
...

Sounds like a straightforward pattern 

Occam clearly sides with me, I do not need an absurd amount of contradictory math to define the correct pattern:
...
.999
1.000
1.111
...

Only an idiot would think 0.999... = 1, are you an idiot?

First, I would like to thank all involved with the thread/ site as I have not been so entertained for some time. To all of the flat earth opponents: Having read alot of the posts, I think that #1. most, if not all, have a great grasp on the fundamentals of the Calculus, as this particular posting got my attention. And #2 I think that we may be being duped here. Call me a conspiracy theorist but me thinks that this may be a prank executed at the highest levels of physics/ mathematics undergraduate professorship. I mean seriously... with whom are you doing intelectual battle? Think for a second how devious the plan would be for a group of elder acedemics to start such a ridiculous  
 page and watch their students systematically destroying such insane stupidity as 0.999... doesn't equal one. As if people with the ability to start and maintain a website had the inability to understand limits, the fundamental basis of Calculus. C'mon guys... whats next? If I might suggest, from a fan's standpoint, I would personally love to a see a website that proffers the existence of the "Creationist / 5000 year old earth" and sit back to watch the sparks fly. Of course we wouldn't get as many math students, but please, offer the idea up to your particular university's geology professors. Their students will also surely have a field day. To those feeling like they are out of place and should be doing something useful with their precious time on the net, I am just as guilty as having far too much free time as you for having visited a "Flat Earth" webpage. Having said that, I also haven't been as entertained in many a moon. So thank you to all of the contributors. And while the "Flat earth faithful" will surely lambast this post... I would like to give a slight wink and nod to you guys, as alot of these posters have had a chance to truly question what they have been taught and why it may, or may not make logical sense to them. Long live the flat earth! For at least another five thousand!!!

18 pages...

0.99999 != 1
0.999...  = 1

[NOTE: THIS POST WILL BE SPAMMABLE SHOULD STUPIDITY CONTINUES BEYOND PAGE 18]

ITT: crybabies whine over stupid people who don't know how basic mathematics work.

A wall of text is something that is frowned upon in most, actually virtually all Internet societies, including forums, chat boards, and Uncyclopedia. You should not make walls of text because it can get you banned anywhere unless it is a place that encourages walls of text. I highly doubt any place does support something so irritating and annoying, but anything can exist, but not really because unless you are in heaven then that can happen. But no one actually knows that was just a hypothesis, a lame one that is. Actually not really lame. You can create a wall of text supporting site, but you would be hated if you do that, so do not. But you can if you like, but I discourage that. Now on to the actual information of walls of texts. The wall of text was invented when the Internet was invented, but actually it was slow at that time. So whenever it became fast. But there would need to be some free or not free community for people, and that community would be able to have walls of text. But that community probably wouldn't have actually invented the wall of text. So basically, no one except God knows when or where or how the wall of text existed/was invented. Noobs probably invented, but probably not. Who knows. Walls of texts are usually filled with a lot of useless information and junk. Information and junk can be the same, but only if the information is junk or the junk is information. But who cares. The information/junk inside a wall of text are usually related to whatever the wall of text is located, but the best walls of text, which are actually the most irritating, most eye-bleeding ones, are completely random. Walls of text usually make the reader asplode or have their eyes bleed and fall out of their sockets. A number of people can stand it, but not read them. Actually some people can stand and read them. Those people do not have short attention spans. These are boring and patient people who have no life or have all the time in their hands, which are the same, but not really. The punishment of what making walls of text varies of the strictness of the community. But it doesn't really matter. Nobody cares. Walls of texts should be free of links, different font colors, strange characters, which are those other symbols used in society, and capital letters because it ruins the whole purpose of the infamy of walls of texts. It makes them look fucking dumb and weird and dumb. Walls of texts are obviously free of huge spaces and outstanding things like capital letters. Of course, paragraphs should never be in a wall of text. Walls of text are known to create nausea, confusion, head explosion, and others. The others being something I can not think of either because I am lazy or if I do not feel like it or I can not actually think of anything. Like what the fuck? That was a rhetorical question right there. What the fuck? You are actually not requesting a satisfactory answer, you just say that because you try to be funny or you feel like it or if you are pissed off. You must get a proper bitch-slapping to stop making walls of text, but if you are weird then that doesn't apply to you. Walls of text are defeated by deleting them or splitting them into paragraphs. Or some other things that would work but will take hours to think of. People are considered a nuisance if they create walls of text. This might be the end. If you hope this is the end, I am not sure. But if I was not sure then I wouldn't be talking. I should know. Or should I? The best way to make a better and good wall of text is to copy and paste what you previously typed or write. Hey, that reminds me. Walls of text aren't always on the internet! They could be anywhere that is able to produce symbols. D'oh.

You are actually not requesting a satisfactory answer, you just say that because you try to be funny or you feel like it or if you are pissed off. Now I just copied and pasted part of this huge wall of text, which is actually not. Wait what? Nice right? Ba boom a rhetorical question right there. Is this the end for the sanity of your eyes? What the fuck did you actually read up to here? Or did you skip to near the end and read this? Either way, you fail in life. Just kidding. Or was I? Oh well. Congratualtions, or not, actually not. Get a life right now. I found a cheap life on eBay, but cheap lives are rare. Well, good luck in finding one. Not! Okay go have fun, but I wasn't meaning that. So go sit in the corner in your house. I do not care which, just stay there and rot. If you are not in a place with a corner, then lucky you. Find one if you can. There is no other option because I said so. Now if you pity yourself for reading this like most do, then do something productive and useful to the environment. My goodness.So SAD SO SADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!
