everything leads to 123

no, im not using '123' as sum sort of euphemism for sex

its a cool math thing i just read abt is a book im reading...here it is

1: pick a number with an arbitrary number of digits, let's say 2317281222

2: count the number of even numbers, in this case we get 6 even numbers

3: count the number of odd numbers, in this case we get 4 odd numbers

4: count the total number of digits in the number..we have 10 digits in 2317281222

5: put the results of steps 2,3 and 4 together, to get 6410

6: using the number from step 5, start again from step 2...we get 3 even numbers, 1 odd number, and 4 digits in 6410...put them together to get 314...start again from step 2...1 even number, 2 odd numbers, and 3 digits in total...putting them together we get...u guessed it--123!!!

and if u repeat the process again on 123, u'll just end up with 123 again and again...this works on ANY number of ANY length...cool eh?

123 easy as ABC.

Neat trick. The fact that I'm amazed is that it will always have to be one even and two odd numbers and not two even and one odd.

you need to stay away from the calculators for a while and get some girl.

but it's a good trick anyway
