No such symmetry in total topics.

Re: 0x202FF
Why did we not celebrate the zeroth post? Zero is perfectly round in any base. You can use the empty string to represent it, by omitting the extraneous leading digit. In some senses it's even like infinity. How did we miss that opportunity?

But that only works in base 10, 100, 10000, and more unusual ones like ∛10000≈21.54! #RuiningYourDayWithMath
