So strange that there will always be an even digit throughout the 2000's

And that there will be no even ones in the 3000s...

There is a 3 in each of them

Its the last digit that determines if the number is even or odd, so 3001, 3003, 3005, would be odd numbers, while 3002, 3004, 3006 are even.

100 is an even number, even though it has a 1 in it for example.

You're still wrong because the original post says "first date where all digits are odd", not "first date where any digit is odd". Just because it has a single 3 doesn't mean the rest of the date doesn't contain any even numbers.

If it was the latter... We'd never go more than 2 days without hitting another date containing an odd digit.

Im not replying about the original post, im replying about the comment that said there will be no even numbers in the 3000s.

Is zero an even number?

Well then, 01/01/3111 is not actually the next "odd" date: its actually "11/11/3111"

Yes.

It passes any and all tests for being even. It is a multiple of 2 (0 = 0×2). It is one less than an odd number. Even × even = even. Even × odd = even. Etc etc.

Common definition of even is that x is even iff x mod 2 == 0, which holds for 0, so 0 is even

Umm except you are missing zeroes. 01/01/3111 is not all odds.

rape-ape t1_j273dpt wrote

A 01 is just 1, they are both odd… The 0 in front doesn’t make it a different number…

TheGazelle t1_j28t525 wrote

The title says "digit", not "number".

So 01 is two digits (0 and 1) while 1 is only one digit. They are not the same in this context.

rape-ape t1_j292wtr wrote

I get that but still, 0 is not an odd or even number and why are we judging this by how a computer records it? I don’t write dates with 0’s and I don’t know anyone who does.

That's what I thought, too. Make it November 11, then. We waited that long ... We can wait another ten months.

Most places in the US don't use leading zeroes on dates.

So I guess 2/2/2000 was the first day since 8/28/888 where all the numbers were even?

XyloArch t1_j263g4m wrote

Itd have to be 11/11/3111 to avoid pesky zeroes

ive been seeing 311 everyday for about 20 years. Im gunna count this as todays. March 11 had the Fukushima Tsunami and the official start of the pandemic, and also the day the first case of the spanish flu was detected. Also the day that China got rid of term limits for their leader. i have my tinfoil hat ready.

I'm sorry, is the thing you learned today that the number 2 is even?

We should all get together for cake or something then.

How about we do it the first day there isn't an even digit in the year?

Bart-MS t1_j24l4c2 wrote

28/8/888 and 2/2/2222 for even numbers if my math is correct.

Minuted t1_j24nwz5 wrote

Any year in the 2000s ending in an even number would have had a bunch of all even dates. So would the 2020s, 2040s etc.

There's no odd counterpart to zero which is why I'm guessing dates with all odd numbers are more rare. Though once you get to 3111 you'll have a bunch.

Verdick t1_j2eja6p wrote

They're saying each digit is odd, not the overall date is odd.

I'm putting it in my calendar now!

Amazing!
