OK that is the end of 2009 for me. I am booting 2009 out into the cold and welcoming 2010 “TwentyTen” with open arms and high expectations. I have several blogs posts in process covering a wide array of topics including one I call “Round & Round, Rounding” that digs deep into just how the computer and AutoCAD deal with values with 64bit floating point precision but converting strings to binary and back and the base logic.
As always if you have comments, suggestions, topics you would like to see, or perhaps you have some AutoCAD family products tips you want to share with a large worldwide audience email me at shaan@autodesk.com.
Thank you for reading Between the Lines!
Shaan
Very impressive statistics Shaan…
I’ve almost given up that there are not many CAD blog readers out there. I’ll be happy enough if one day I can get half of this stats!
#43 Mars! Mars? Dude, now that’s a road trip you need to bring your camera to.
Bill,
I was wondering if someone would catch that. 🙂
Thank you.
you’re fine, Shaan.. i love to read your blog.
