But if you do the math this way:


776 / (776 + 1481) = 34%


So that works for you at least...but not other people. Reverse-engineering a formula might be an interesting math problem.

Sounds similar to what I noticed a few weeks ago. I posted the thread below regarding it.

Just tried to do a cut-and-paste of some C++ code. It renders fine on the forum page, but when you "Toggle Plain Text" to paste it into another document, you get some tags you don't want ('<strong...

Well, this post is neutral again. Thanks to whoever upvoted me.

"Community Introductions" would be the proper forum for posts like this. Welcome!

I think the Member of the Month should have the most rep power.

The last thing we need is more assumptions. I thought this was a thread about code tags originally and assumption regarding code tags based on what forum you're in is a massive problem.

Yeah, I guess no one will notice a bold dot, so there are workarounds. I think it would be better to go back to the old way where nothing was assumed and you had to make it explicit.



Thanks. ...

Yeah, I just tried that in the C++ forum. Tried to post this:

It added the C++ code tags, I would imagine since there's nothing to be bolded. Stick an empty space in...

I'm still noticing in the C++ section that is adding line numbers and saying "C++ Syntax". It's not supposed to do that, correct?

The one I listed now works, but the problem remains for others, like this random thread I picked from the C++ forum just now.
