A Math Problem.

[brotherdoobie]

How many years would it take to dl a 1YB(Yattabyte) file.
At current speeds.......I know it's very subjective.

you mean yottabyte?

well, one yottabyte is 1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 bytes

if you had t3 (44mbps) working at 90% efficiency, it'd take approx:
6806602674677.20 years to download

[The Penetrator]

i've got a 56k connection and i can d/l at least 1 yottabyte a day

I really suck at math, so correct if I&#39;m wrong.....

My DSL is 100kb/s (that&#39;s what it reports when download from KaZaA)
1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706 kb / 100kb/s

= 1208925819614629174.7 seconds

WRONG&#33;
dunno how, just guessing it&#39;s wrong. You must be at least a year or two wrong somewhere, pobody&#39;s nerfect :D

This time I won&#39;t round each subtotal...

1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 bytes
equals
1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706.176 KB

Divide
1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706.176
by my 100kb/s (DSL)
equals
12089258196146291747.06176

Divide
12089258196146291747.06176
by 60 (seconds)
equals
201487636602438195.78436266666667 (Minutes)

Divide by 60 (minutes)
equals
3358127276707303.2630727111111111 (hours)

Divide by 365.25 (years)
equals
9194051407822.8699878787436306943 (Years)

Divide by 10 (Decades)
equals
919405140782.2869987878743630694 (decades)

-OR-

Divide by 100 (centuries)
equals

I thought there were 1024 bytes in a kilobyte...? :blink:

[Smerkin]

it&#39;s 8 bytes to a kilabyte then 1024kb to a megabyte

[PB Montgolfier]

It&#39;s 8 bits to a byte. 1024 bytes to a kilobyte. Its a power of 2, computers are digital.

Hence bit (binary digit)

[TheDave]

i swear i aint lying its cos the wire goes on the pylons i think. in those storms last week sometimes the net just stopped working all together. unless i was hacked or something :unsure: . in that case LEAVE ME ALONE :angry:

[Somebody1234]

@TheDave,

If that&#39;s the case that your ADSL has poor performance in rainy weather then contact your phone company and complain. Do you also hear interference when using the phone? I had a family member that had the same problem about 3 weeks ago. They sent a technician and he replaced a wire at the pole and voila, problem fixed. (No costs involved).

[TheDave]

i never knew you could complain i thought it was just one of those things

[Spindulik]

Okay here...

You have:
Bits
Bytes
Kilobytes
Megabytes
Gigabytes
Terabytes
Lamseybytes
etc...

Sounds like a lot of metric prefixes, yet it doesn&#39;t follow the rule of metrics. 1024 is the correct size for computing, therefore a megabyte is almost a "megabyte", not quite a 1000 bytes
