minus-squarena_th_an@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up31arrow-down3·1 month agoIf you read it aloud it doesn’t sound right, but from a mathematical perspective it’s saying the number of steps per day should be less than 500, which I think is the intention of the writer, no?
minus-squareBackgrndNoize@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up16·edit-21 month agoYes that’s the intention but they got the order wrong, it would make more sense if it was written as ateps/day < 500
minus-squareCapricorn_Geriatric@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 month agoIt’s so wrong it underflowed into somehow being right again. Unusual? Sure. Mathematically? Right.

Yes
People don’t know how to use greater-than or less-than symbols
500 greater then steps per day
500 > steps_per_dayUnfortunately I don’t think we have enough information to solve for
steps_per_day, though I assume it is also>= 0.So we can make an educated guess that
500 > steps_per_day >= 0
