YOU are wrong, I have been right all the time
There are more days in a year than degrees
In your math :
(90-19.47) * (360/365) = 69.56 days
(270+19.47) * (360/365) = 285.50 days
I total: 355,06 days.
In my math :
(90-19.47) * ( 365/360 )= 71,51
(270+19.47) * (365/360)=293,49
Sorry, Dutch but I'm not wrong here. I didn't almost have you fooled. You have
you absolutely fooled. You don't understand your own equation.
365 days/360 degrees - is read "1.014 days per degree". It tells you the period, in days, required for (in this case) Earth to move along its orbital path such that it subtends an arc of 1 degree, 1.014 days. Multiple that by 360 days and you have 365 "degrees".
It does not, however, tell you how many degrees of arc the Earth's orbit subtends in one day 0.986 degrees per day). That equation requires 360 degrees/365 days - "0.986 degrees per day". Multiply that by 365 days and you have 360 degrees.
Your numbers that you post would be correct if the equation included the proper "degrees per day statement in the equation. It doesn't. Yet the numbers are based on its being there. There's not too many conclusions that can be drawn from that situation. The obvious ones are:
1. "ESP" - the mystical beyond is beaming the numbers directly to your brain without your having to understand them. Yeah.
2. Someone else is doing the math for you but is unaware that you have the statment wrong.
3. Someone else prepared an Excel spreadsheet for you a long time ago. You're blindly plugging in the numbers without being aware of the underlying equations, functions and statements in the sheet. But because you don't understand the statement and its function you invert days and degrees. Your previous post makes that very clear.
However, it is all moot. I was bored with the Dutch topic years ago, I'm still bored with it and you have demonstrated that you will likely never cooperate with the regular members here or on any other site. Why one bothers to go to a
discussion forum and refuses to discuss is beyond me. What's the point?
In some circumstances people will give a shout out, "Get a room!" In this case the shout out should be, "Get a blog!" I mean that, Dutch - get a blog. It is yours, there's no implied relationship of discussing anything and people can still read your thoughts if they choose to do so.
