Re: [math-fun] Noah and his adders

Noah: Why aren't you adders adding? Snakes: We're only half adders, our father was a cobra. His genes didn't carry (over). Noah: Well, you could if you or your associate would just work together... At 05:53 PM 12/16/2016, Dan Asimov wrote:

As the animals left the ark, Noah told them to go forth and multiply. After some while, Noah happened upon two snakes sunning themselves. "Why aren't you multiplying?" Noah asked. The snakes replied, "We can't, we're adders." So Noah and his sons went into the nearby forest and felled some trees. They made a platform of logs onto which they placed the snakes. You see, even adders can multiply on a log table.
