I have no idea how you or your parent immediately arrived at calendar dates (which in my book require a period at the end), but to everyone i know, 1.10 is not a date, but a floating point number with the same magnitude as 1.1, which is thus closer to 0 than 1.9 is.
- blueflow 5y agoHow would October 1st be written down at your place?
- ThePadawan 5y ago1.10.
- blueflow 5y agoAh i see, the trailing dot.
- Joker_vD 5y agoWhat locale is that? I know that e.g. de-DE uses trailing dot to mark ordinal numbers, so "1." means "the first", but it also uses decimal comma instead of decimal point, so there is no confusion.
- ThePadawan 5y agoTBH, I'm German, but a Software Engineer, so it's a mix of both. I don't know what an average German would make of "1.10", really. I've only seen that as "subsection 10 of section 1 of a book".
