  Assuming everyone on this thread is stuck on that ulu-ulu island, technically you will be the one with the most survival chance.

  Oh, and did deepak mention that there is an airplane with autopilot on island C, and that everyone on this thread has unanimously voted to dump the guy who is busy looking for clean water behind? XD

  Hi,

    Am currently on in-camp training, so that explains my inclination to survive under adverse conditions, haha!

  if u can sail to another island, mean u not stuck wat...

  but then again... if u sail to any of the other two island....

  u still end up on an island....

  so might as well remove ur cloth and start sun tanning....

  Nowadays maths questions can be unreliastic, imagine a compound intrest question haveing 20%intrest(where on earth can find so good) and a car that cost RM1000????

  finding square root without calculators i think can also do prime factorisateion and here estimate a little, there estimate a little.....

  anyone thought of this?

  (40^2+90^2)^0.5 = 90 ( 1 + 16/81 ) ^ 0.5

                               = 90 ( 1 + 0.5(16/81) - 1/8(16/81)^2 +1/16(16/81)^3 - (1/2)(-1/2)(-3/2)(-5/2)/4!(16/81)^4+....................................)

   

  needs alot of patience...=)
