0 Guest Posted September 24, 2010 Report Share Posted September 24, 2010 It's supposed to give Pi 3.1416. But this requires us to consider "N" and "Z" as having horizontal symmetry as defined as in the letter "A". It would be clearer to say 'Only leave letters that are asymmetric' Write out the alphabet starting with J: JKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHI Erase all letters that have left-right symmetry (such as A) and count the letters in each of the five groups that remain.
