Tues Oct 20 Numbers, Numbers, Numbers. Let’s Break the Code. Remember that before Zip Codes, there were Zone Numbers. We will look at familiar numbers and break the code. We will look at the “special” numbers on your currency (most of your dollar bills have ‘11’). Just to be different we will look at Interstate Highway numbers. We’ll break the code on the first 3 digits of your Social Security number, and we will finish up with the Dallas “mystery” of area codes. Do you remember your first phone number? Just don’t call me at (972)555-1234.
Presenter: Dr. Arnold Paddock, Richland College Physics instructor
