Originally posted by arrakisI'm not stupid arrakis, I can tell where the exponents are meant to go.

Are you going to to admit you messed up the games vs. positions as well as the protons vs. atoms (which isn't such a big deal as they are only 1 order of magnitude different anyway).
Read my message again. The first one adjusted the text exponents to read as ordinary text and before I could edit it everyone jumped on it.
As for cleaning up my explanation it was (and is) perfectly clear to me. And my source is quite clear too, G. H. Hardy said the last section, that's why I thanked him.
PS. Don't try and argue math with me, I'm the king of math (until say RC or SPMars or any one of a handful of other posters shows up).

So, protons within a radius of 15ish Billion light years. Which clever b'stard worked that out and is it correct without question?
Remember one order of magnitude is a factor of 10 difference. It's not claimed to be a very accurate guess.
EDIT: I should point out that those calculations are in atoms but as I said earlier, there will only be on average a few protons per atom (remember how much of the galaxy is hydrogen?) so we just add an extra magnitude on.
Welcome to the science of astronomy.

So you see, it's all your fault for being such a dick that all these messages of attack and defense came to be. You may think you are a mathematical genius, but to most of us here who are adults, you are a child.

And I did attribute it.
And you still haven't admitted you were in fact wrong in correcting me.
