It has been a while, but aren't integers a subset of reals (thus every integer is a member of the set of real numbers)?

You're correct on that, integers are a subset of reals, imaginary numbers on the other side aren't.

Why can't some people simply take a joke at face value instead of (incorrectly) analyzing the crap out of it?
With the exception of Arpit, you are all talking out of your rears.

Real number = Positive numbers (Unsigned). Anything that is for all intents and purposes an actual thing. You can see 1 apple (1 = real), but you can't see -1 apple (-1 = not real, but an integer).

Not all that confusing.. and I suck at math.

so it's using words to describe something that also hold different meaning.

ie) There are 10 types of people in this world, those that know binary and those that don't. Most people see that as 10, but in binary it's the decimal equivelant of 2.

I had to, when people say they don't understand something as basic as that, it's like a need I have to explain it. I can't just let it be unexplained.

And Markus, nearly 100% of the time explaining a joke makes it not funny, but I would rather a joke be explained than have someone saying: "Don't get it, not funny"

Oh... wait. I get it. Holy Bartender! Ha, ha, ha!

dogma quote aside, cheers for explaining I wasn't 100% there.
