mod6: "In his paper, Pearson gave several interesting examples of the previous misuse of statistics; and he also proved that certain runs at roulette (which he had experienced during two weeks at Monte Carlo in 1892) were so far from the expected frequencies that odds against the assumption of an honest wheel were some 10^29 to one!"

mircea_popescu: because i've had it explaining this in private : yes http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-19#1659420 goes to 1. for the same money, f(x) = 1/n^x g(x) = 1/x converge to 1/n, which is any arbitrary value (including 0 when n=x so f(x) = 1/x^x. nfi why this isn't evident, but anyway. ☝︎

asciilifeform: danielpbarron: make sure your copy matches ^
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ^ you got quoted.
mircea_popescu: anyway, danielpbarron original approach, ie with limits of functionals, is imo also the correct one. and in this perspective f ^ g when both f and g ->0 is properly undefined.
asciilifeform: so you gotta have x ^ 0 = 1
asciilifeform: x ^ 2 / x ^ 1 = x ^ 1 ; x ^ n / x ^ m = x ^ (n - m)
asciilifeform: x ^ 1 / x ^ 1 = 1
asciilifeform: as for n ^ 0, this is not mega-mystery :
mircea_popescu: n ^ 0 is practically speaking the mathematical notation of aristotle's prime mover. "before anything, everything was one."
mircea_popescu: moreover, the strong argument is ex nihilo nihil. n ^ 0 is validly something, but 0 processed in any way can't properly make anything besides itself.
danielpbarron: it is not controversial to say that 1^0 equals 1. that is one times itself zero times
danielpbarron: apparently Euler argued that 0^0 should equal 1 on the basis that n^0 equals 1. also, my ti-89 says 0^0 = 1
asciilifeform: when you have an O(N^5) !!
