do the math
It's time for an interactive story! You can finish it and provide the wonderfully coincidental and coincidentally wonderful ending.
So I broke two of my resolutions at once by buying a new book. But I couldn't resist. It's the time of year for Barnes and Noble's online clearance, so books are up to 90% off in some cases, and there's always obscure stuff that no one wants to pay full price for... like math history books. Which, incidentally. I love. I hate studying history in general, but the history of math and some sciences is really fascinating. Anyway. So I bought A History of Pi on clearance for $3.49. Also, being a Barnes and Noble member, I get a 10% discount on purchases. So...
I just noticed, myself. Nice to see they round the discount to the nearest cent instead of just truncating it, too.
