  1. It's a parlor trick. on Proving 0.999... Is Equal To 1 · · Score: 1

    Hey Rocky, watch me as I pull another significant digit from my hat!

    Showing 0.999.... at the beginning implies that the number is NOT 1. And then at the end, it's turned into 1.

    0.999... has infinite significant digits. It's how the trick works. Otherwise you have to say that:

    10a != 9.999...

    10a = 9.9
