Q: Why do mathematicians, after a dinner at a Chinese restaurant, always insist on taking the leftovers home?
A: Because they know the Chinese remainder theorem!

What do you guys think the Chinese remainder theorem is ? 

who cares

who cares

Now that's a typical "olodo" 

Hey, you know am joking---right ?

i don't even know what that means.

which makes it more fun for me

whatever

Ok naija diva, do you really want to know what "olodo" means. Well i won't tell you directly, but all I'll say is that the joke below is coded to give you the meaning:

[b]A mathematician is flying non-stop from Edmonton to Frankfurt with AirTransat. The scheduled flying time is nine hours.
Some time after taking off, the pilot announces that one engine had to be turned off due to mechanical failure: "Don't worry - we're safe. The only noticeable effect this will have for us is that our total flying time will be ten hours instead of nine."
A few hours into the flight, the pilot informs the passengers that another engine had to be turned off due to mechanical failure: "But don't worry - we're still safe. Only our flying time will go up to twelve hours."
Some time later, a third engine fails and has to be turned off. But the pilot reassures the passengers: "Don't worry - even with one engine, we're still perfectly safe. It just means that it will take sixteen hours total for this plane to arrive in Frankfurt."
The mathematician remarks to his fellow passengers: "If the last engine breaks down, too, then we'll be in the air for twenty-four hours altogether!" [/b]

i know that you may still not be able to decode the joke above, so I'll help you a step further
here it goes: "You are directly proportional to the mathematician"

ooooookay

Anyways, the Chinese remainder theorem means that all leftovers would be packaged and resold!

To naija diva; no heart feelings ok

none taken
