For those confused by this, here is the Mitchell and Webb "Numberwang" sketch

And that's a bad miss...
My favorite line, especially as an American because I can say it out loud without the person getting upset since they have no frame of reference. And other Anglophiles I could probably handle.
And here's the history of Numberwang: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ofnDdi-vfw
And so OPs app should have been called Colloson I guess
Rotate the board!
Featuring Academy Award winner Olivia Colman!
There are many sketches
I don't think that this produces correct results, as it seems to determine whether each individual number is Numberwang. However, whether a number is Numberwang can also depend on the previous numbers in the sequence or other factors.
So I think as it stands right now this model can only determine whether a number would be Numberwang as the first number of a sequence, but even for that I still wouldn't rely on this in the actual game show.
Do we really know that? Or have we only seen the sequences from people searching for Numberwang? Has a number been both Numberwang (or Wangernumb) and not Numberwang (or Wangernumb)?
Yeah, we do - there's a famous episode where after rotating the board both contestants stubbornly kept picking 1, and after a couple of iterations one of them was Wangernumb.
I'm also not sure that we know a non-number can never be Numberwang.
A non-number could be either a Numberwang OR a Wanganumb - this does depend on whether Yorkshire is a pudding or not.
Hello I have a question, and my question is what the fuck
That's not even a number.
In some bases it is. Numberwang!
With All Due Love,
Sir Digby Chicken Caesar, Esq.
Hey! I was not consulted?
You're playing with fire here, don't forget the tragedy of Colosson. Computers weren't meant to do this.
Amazing, I passed by Mornington Crescent only yesterday!
