I think you mean “numerals” (or just “numbers”). 😅😬
Thanks - I was so confused before you cleared it up for me
No no, they’re on to something. No repeating decimals too!
Digits would work best
That’s what she said. sigh
A lot of people collect bills with interesting serial numbers, with stars, etc. a serial number with all the same numbers, or in numerical order, a palindrome, etc., all carry premiums.
This is an intriguing one. It would probably be interesting to them, because it doesn’t have any repeating numbers, but it isn’t obvious, like if they were in order. Still, I’ll bet it’s worth a little more than $1, but not much.
Somebody might, but as a group they don’t value these. They are pretty picky, there’s a lot of notes of there.
The type closest to this would be Ladders I think. Like 12345678 or 23456789. True ladder are very rare and valuable but broken ladders are pretty common. By the time you get to something like 67890432 you probably wouldn’t have any premium to the average buyer
“Well doggies, Ain’t that something!”
~Jed Clampett~This is very satisfying
I can’t help but wonder how you noticed this
Now that’s an interesting firing order.
None of this 1-8-7-2-6-5-4-3 or 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 nonsense, no
Just 8-4-3-1-6-7-2-5 👌
hey neat! I have that exact same bill!
Now do your credit card.
It’s not possible because that’s 16 digits.
Let me be the judge of that. Maybe you missed it, let me verify it for you.
Base 16 would like a word.
Please tell me base 16 isn’t trying to hex-a-decimal
Credit card numbers are in base 10
Everything is in base 10 (unless it’s in unary).
not if i debase your currency >:3
Seems to be correct, I was thinking of a different card in my wallet.
Ahem I mean I fancypants McGee have the 16 element identity permutation for my card number!
What if they are generated in base 16, but numbers containing a-f are discarded. Did you think about that? Huh?
fun fact: 1$ bill weighs almost exactly 1 gram and you idiots don’t even use the metric system.
We might consider it if you updated the definition so that 1 gram was exactly the weight of a US dollar
A nickel is 5 grams and you don’t use the metric system either.
Fun fact, all US customary units are defined in terms of the metric system. For example, 1 inch is exactly 2.54cm. which means a US mile is 1.609344km. Americans have be using a bastardized version of the metric system since 1959.
It actually changes based on how much cocaine and humane fluids it absorbs. That sounds like a joke, but I used to calibrate currency scales. There would be one setting for regular bills, and one for crisp, brand new ones; those would weigh measurably less.
Someone figure out the probability!
If I remember high school math correctly, The first digit can be anything so, 10/10 options, the second digit cant be be the first so only 9/10 options, then 8/10 for the third, continue this pattern for each digit and multiply together you get 1.8% chance.
10 x 9 x 8… etc. yields 1,814,400 possible combinations of no repeats, right? I’m confused what the “whole” is if this is expressed as a percent.
100 000 000, the number of possible serial numbers.
Aha, that makes sense. Thanks.
I heard somewhere recently that the length of a USD One Dollar bill is the average human penis length
Pretty sure that’s the 5 euro note mate.
US bills are 6.14 inches (156 mm) wide, which is significantly larger than the average US penis size (5.16 inches).

A 6.3 inch erect penis is larger than 95% of men.
Well okay, but the average width is still 2.61 inches, surely
There are no decimals in the serial number, therefore there are also no repeating decimals
Every whole number has infinite repeating decimals of zero, kinda.
They’re implied, kinda.
