Famous quotes containing the words coded and/or decimal:
“We are built to make mistakes, coded for error.”
—Lewis Thomas (b. 1913)
“It makes little sense to spend a month teaching decimal fractions to fourth-grade pupils when they can be taught in a week, and better understood and retained, by sixth-grade students. Child-centeredness does not mean lack of rigor or standards; it does mean finding the best match between curricula and children’s developing interests and abilities.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
