Gee, thanks!<P>Just what I wanted to do on a SATURDAY! MORE WORK!!!<P>I'd prefer your algorythmn in Hungarian syntax notation please .... doh!<P>Jo

Hi 'all,<P>Oops did I stumble in on the class of Advanced MB 501A? I must be in the wrong class. I am a newbie and still in Beginning MB. We still speak in english with a side class on fogese. <P>Would you like to hear my fogese? <P>"Hi everyone,<P>Today I come to speak about you but you really can not hear me because even though I am speaking about you, I am not speaking to you. When you go, I stay. Do you want to I come stay go or do you want I go stay come?" <P>Oh, that is the Hawaiian fogese version. Has a touch of pigdin english in it. Well I have to go back and study chapter 5 in my fogese handbook. We are having a test on Monday. <P>I may not graduate to the next MB level since I don't have a knack for picking up new languages. So pardon me if I can't keep up with your theorems. All those letters and symbols are so confusing. <P>Hey, here comes the fog....... it must be getting night here. They usually lock us BS's up after sundown. RE: The WS/OPs need to go out and play in the dark. <P>My question is, if there is an equation to determine the affair, where is the solution? Don't most equations have a solution? Otherwise, what's the use? <P> <P>L.<P><BR><p>[This message has been edited by Orchid (edited July 14, 2001).]

Orchid:<P>Yes, it is getting dark and Affairees are out and about ... wondering here about the similarities between them and vampires (fog, darkness). Anyone know Bram Stoker's phone number?<P>As for the math: that is the dilemma we have here. To go from the affair formula to the recovery formula. Trying to work the math on that ... diligently decipering Dr. Harley's Plan A/Plan B into mathematics.<P>No matter how it is expressed, though, MB is the winning formula.<P>Godspeed,<BR>STL

Resilient, <P>Since only primitive types are used here, it would seem that Hungarian notation would work. This is however a simplistic view. In developing an algorithm to define affairs one must realize that methods that work for normal primitive types may not work when applied to fogese concepts. The math presented here appears to be simple, linear algebra. However, the mathematical concepts here are not what we normally use on planet earth. This algorithm was actually discovered when its original author was a passenger on the mother ship. The hardware used to process the computations does not operate as we would expect. These are after all fogese computers. The difference is that while the hardware used on Earth utilizes a constant, predictable power flow, the fogese computers use an erratic, unpredictable power flow. A basic concept of math does not apply to fogese computations. While math sentences will always give the same result given the same input, the output of the fogese computers is totally unpredictable. <P>Since fogese applies, we must realize that while a number can be assigned to any one of the variables, it does not remain constant with time. <P>For example. fEN = 5.0 <P>In a fogese computer the original assignment of 5 will not remain constant. It will change as the power flow changes. Therefore at any one point in time, one could check the value of the fEN and get any number that is within the fogese hardware’s range. We have seen instances where overflow and underflow have occurred. But these are intermittent and cannot be produced at will pointing to a possible flaw in the algorithm. <P>So with these laminations in mind, I have done as Resilient requested and changed to Hungarian Syntax Notation…. Doh! <P>g_fnfog = g_fnMS/g_fnA <P>(that is, fog equal Marital State divided by the Affair) <P>where <P>g_fnMS = (fWS+fBS)*(-fEN+fLB)<BR>g_fnA = (fOP+fBS)*(fD+fOWR)<BR>g_fOWR = fPEN*fLoRWI <P>where g_fnMS= Marital State; {The function used arrive at the Marital State }<P>fWS= local variable for Wayward Spouse; <P>fBS= local constant for Betrayed Spouse; <P>fEN= local variable for Emotional Needs <P>fPEN= local variable Perceived Emotional Needs; Note that this value should be generated using a random number generator set to rerun every 5 seconds. <P>fLB= local variable for Love Busters; Some would argue that any number used here should be multiplied by 10 as most WS and BS alike tend to play down the impact of their own love busters. <P>fOP= local variable for Other Person; The possible range of this variable is –100,000 to –1; It is all ways negative. <P>fD = local variable for Denial and/or Deceitfulness; <P>fOWR= local variable Other World Reality; <P>fLoRWI=local variable for Lack of Real World Intrusions <P>Resilient, does that satisfy your request? <P>Z<P><p>[This message has been edited by zorweb (edited July 15, 2001).]

The fogese factor <smack my head> ... how could I have forgotten! And my fogese-to-reality calculator is nowhere to be found ... alas, woe is me!<P>STL

Oh, my heavens.....I haven't laughed so hard since school was out in May......I teach math and physics and this is wonderful stuff, guys! heeheeheeheehee!!!

Yes, I am happy now, altho .....<P>To meet the Fogese hardware requirements/limitations, I have added a feature set to our next gen 64 bit server/workstation architecture componentry supporting all Fogese errata iterations, while still allowing for primitive backward compatibilty. The BMC Firmware and BIOS with "at will" flash capabilities will be the supporting factors, knowing full low-level security encryption guarding against Fogese possible break-ins can be enabled. External product functional specification forth coming.<P>You two (STL & Zorweb) are a couple of knuckleheads! And I'm LMAO at both your recipes.

I respectfully disagree, STL.<P>I'd say it's a "Cuban" Nun with a gun.
