Talk:Spiral of Theodorus

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Who is Einstien? For a moment I thought this was a misspelling of "Einstein", but the former spelling gets a lot more google hits than the latter. Michael Hardy (talk) 03:55, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

True. It was a mispelling of "Einstein." Don't know about the Google hits with "Einstien." --pbroks13^talk? 05:30, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Self-contradictory

It says in the article that the distance between one level and the next approaches a constant value, π, which would imply that this spiral approximates an Archimedean spiral. But it also says that it approximates a logarithmic spiral. Which is it? It can't be both. —David Eppstein (talk) 02:57, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

I researched a little more, its the Archimedes spiral, i'll fix it now. --pbroks13^talk? 05:39, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
