It may take a few months before I get 2004 and 2005 straight. When you get old like me, all the years seem the same. ----------------------------- Brad M. McGehee, MVP Webmaster SQL-Server-Performance.Com

I remember, a long time ago, when I was the young one. Now I am one of the old ones. ----------------------------- Brad M. McGehee, MVP Webmaster SQL-Server-Performance.Com
Brad and Luis, would you please stop here. This is getting ridiculous [<img src='/community/emoticons/emotion-4.gif' alt='' />]<br /><br />--<br />Frank<br /<a target="_blank" href=http://www.insidesql.de>http://www.insidesql.de</a><br />
I guess I must have been young one, just can't remember how it looked like <img src='/community/emoticons/emotion-5.gif' alt='' />
To Frank: How old am I? <br /><br />Last 12 was my birthday. If you sum() the digits of my age you get a prime number. Also if you sum the digits of the year I born, you get a prime number[<img src='/community/emoticons/emotion-4.gif' alt='' />].<br />Help: second prime - first prime = birthday.<br /><br /><br /><br />Luis Martin<br />Moderator<br />SQL-Server-Performance.com<br /><br /><font size="1">All postings are provided “AS IS†with no warranties for accuracy.</font id="size1"><br /><br />
[8D]... anyway the post related to 2004 gave a brainful of thoughts to Frank...and Luis lately. [8D]... enjoy guys. Satya SKJ Moderator http://www.SQL-Server-Performance.Com/forum This posting is provided “AS IS†with no rights for the sake of knowledge sharing.
Luis, are you sure your informations are all correct? I would guessed that your birthday is 12.1.1952 making the digits of the year you were born 17. So, this actually makes you 53. Now, if this is correct, the digits of your age sum up to 8, which isn't a prime number. And the difference won't give 12 at all. Another alternative is, that you're born on 12.1.1953, but that won't give a prime number to the year. However given that ag 52 => 5+2 = 7, so that will be a prime. Maybe, it's too early here.... -- Frank http://www.insidesql.de
