Why does the Series EV Forums got the Number 598.683.875.854.447.300.000 in it?

Hello!

I love creative People, but this was just dumb. Why should the DESCRIPTION of an Series EV Forums has a Number instead of alphabetic letters in it? I mean, the Number 598.683.875.854.447.300.000 (fivehundredandninentyeightquintillionssixhundreda ndeightythreequadrillionseighthundredandseventyfiv etrillionseighthundredandfiftyfourbillionsfourhund redandfourtysevenmillionsthreehundredthousand) makes maybe sense in a calculation, but definitely not in a description.

or is there some sort of code to translate the description into alphabetic letters?

Yep, ASCII. Check the thread here.

I see - Allright. At least it makes sense at all - and it shows perfectly that binary is absolutely useless long. too bad there are no more known states for the computer then on and off....
