Teacher: See, I told you there were real world applications for limits
The real question is, to how many iterations does the hamster say "Eh, good enough"
Well, "hairs" are quantized phenomenon...
So at some finite time, it will be all gone. At least if the thing is happening fast enough for it not to grow back at a similar time-frame.
Kinda. At the last strand I expect them to switch to length.
But yeah, at some point should be good enough
It's already about length.
The guinea pig's hair is getting cut, not ripped out.But hair is still made up of discrete quantity of "stuff"
Well, eventually you get to a point where hairs grow quickly enough that the haircuts effectively stop. I think the sum total of hair material you trend towards at the limit would be the sum of length of hair that grows during the time it takes to do a haircut. Whether it's 1x or 2x of the hair growth amount depends on whether you measure at the start, or end, of the haircut
It's a guinea pig!
No need to be insulting. What's a guinea?
What a high class lady like your granny used to charge
A coin equal to 1 pound and 1 shilling.
Then what's a new guinea, and why does everyone talk about their father?
Well, there's the problem! It's only half off for his protection - nobody likes hair in their cuye.
Yeah but it's clearly a malicious hamster giving the haircut
Can I get that printed on a t-shirt?
