Hi there !

Thank you very much, Ángel, Eddie, Luigi and Joe, for your kind wishes, much appreciated !

After 2^5 years married I'm still quite the romantic soul, which is good. I'll try my best to contribute more frequently to the forum though I've still not solved to my satisfaction the essential issue of how to make my Hp-related materials available online.

By the way, Joe, very nice your expression including the 2018/02/14 date. As it uses two operations (^ and /) and eight digits (3,3,1,5,2,5,8,7) to render an 8-digit sequence (20180214) it has a "Simple Merit Value" of -(2+8-8) -2. Mine has a SMV of -(1+6-8) = +1., which is better ... 8D

Here's another one:

Sqrt(22008840) = 4691.3580123456789961013...

which again has SMV = -(1+8-10) = +1.

Actually the Full (not Simple) Merit Value also takes into account the number of digits before the sequence begins, else you'll find any sequence in, say, Sqrt(2) by simply computing enough digits and so the SMV could be arbitrarily large, assuming Sqrt(2) is a normal number in base 10 but I digress..)

Thanks again and best regards.
V.
