Let's play Dingbats!
I reckon it's "3 pies overlong."

Edit: Wait, I count 4 pies! This could change everything.

I must go.
but before I do, I wish to point out that I love this word and I hope it will be admitted to the oxford english dictionary before long.

(4 x Pi) / (50 x O x N)

Correct ?
* whatever you said

EDIT: Are the O & N, Roman numerals?
( Sir Wobbly Boots had far too much to drink last night!, Thu 31 Jan 2008, 16:41, archived)

Nope.
Only: M, D, C, L, X, V and I are.

it's 0
as 12(ish) / 0 = 0
(cs192 is poking an old man's wound on, Thu 31 Jan 2008, 16:41, archived)

WHY /0?

( Ttssattsr MILA KUNIS IS MINE., Thu 31 Jan 2008, 16:42, archived)

because
O in roman numerals = 0

(but not used in the same way as our numerals)
(cs192 is poking an old man's wound on, Thu 31 Jan 2008, 17:11, archived)

anything divided by 0 is technically infinity isn't it?

( dbroon has a little problem with you not fucking him, Thu 31 Jan 2008, 16:42, archived)

no, it's technically undefined
but the limit of x/n as n tends to zero is a definition of infinity

Depends what division means.
If x/y means distributing x into y groups and measuring the size of a group, then x/0 means distributing x into zero groups, in other words doing nothing, so the answer could be zero. If x/y means counting how many times you can subtract y from x, the answer is infinity.
Edit: also, if 50/0 = infinity, infinity * 0 = 50 ... or any other number.

Division (horticulture): a method of vegetative plant propagation, or the plants created by using this method

( pzyko, Thu 31 Jan 2008, 16:52, archived)

your first case
would result in "undefined". doing nothing isn't the same as having a well-defined answer of zero.

edit: and since infinity isn't actually a number your second point is not true
(boris the spider, Thu 31 Jan 2008, 16:53, archived)

Did the Romans have a symbol for zero?
Thought that only came about centuries after the fall of the Empire, courtesy of the Muslim world.
