the fuckin' gov't debt.
Funny, but as a side note, currency calculation shouldn't be done
with floats, but with *integers* (or fixed-precision numbers, that is
ultimately equivalent to integers that represent some minimal
fraction of the currency unit, usually cents).
Yes, but at the rate we're going, the only reasonable way to represent
the government debt might soon be in log space.
A CS prof around here has a plot on his door. It's some African nations exchange
rate vs. USD.
At first glance it looks exponential.
At second glance it looks super-exponential
at third glance you notice the Y-axis is log!
