Hello,
my exercise for today is something I stumbled across a few days ago but
that is very nice: Answer with only using Emacs (or maybe your school
knowledge?):
The first three decimal digits (from the left) of 1001^1000 - i.e. one
thousand and one to the one thousand's power,
1001*1001*...*1001
\________________/
^
1000 factors
are of course:
(a) 2 7 1, the first three digits of Euler's number e
(b) 3 1 4, the first three digits of the mathematical constant pi
(c) 1 0 0, or
(d) none of these
What's your choice? How would you solve this using Emacs (or maybe even
without)?
