peer agreement (net): +1inclusive Explanation: in the closed interval [1, 26] (or whatever). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2012-09-07 15:18:49 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- https://www.google.ie/search?num=100&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&as_q... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 hrs (2012-09-07 18:47:23 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The distinction is between an Open Interval (sens strict) and a closed interval (sens large) which includes the end-points. For example: "La correspondance biunivoque entre nombre réel et point d'une droite (d) conduit à noter de façon semblable un segment [AB], ensemble de points de (d) compris entre A et B, et un ensemble [a,b], de nombres réels x compris au sens large entre a et b (a < b) : a ≤ x ≤ b, qualifié d'intervalle fermé et également appelé segment. La notation ]a,b[ désigne l'ensemble des nombres réels x compris au sens strict entre a et b (a < b) : a < x < b." When we are talking about integers this is expressed in English as from a to b inclusive. In the above, "1 to 26 inclusive". The 33 was changed incorrectly by the poster from some original figure like e.g. "at least 24". I'm fairly sure this has nothing to do with "generally", "usually", "normally" etc. |

| Reference Reference information: http://faq.maths.free.fr/texte/faq45.html Un prof de maths donne un problème à résoudre à ses deux meilleurs élèves, Pierre et Sophie. Il donne à Pierre le produit de deux nombres entiers compris (au sens large) entre 2 et 100, et à Sophie la somme des deux mêmes nombres, puis il leur demande s'ils peuvent déterminer quels étaient les nombres de départ. ... Cet autre point, c'est que l'on ne sait pas si Pierre et Sophie connaissent la valeur minimum (2) et la valeur maximum (100) nombres de départ. |
