Fencepost error

How many fenceposts for a given length of fence?

There are 99 percentile points, but this means there are 100 classes they divide the range into. --prime mover (talk) 21:30, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

I think I need to take a math break today. (Worth making a fencepost error in the fallacies and mistakes section?) --GFauxPas (talk) 21:41, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

I've been thinking of so doing. Even LF made one the other day ... not today though, it's late here, and I have a 05:45 start tomorrow and a busy week with a lot of travelling. --prime mover (talk) 21:54, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
