Alrighty, KJ, that was fun!
Here is another number puzzle. Take the following expression:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 = 1
Using any mathematical symbols you like, add the required elements to make this expression true.
The ONLY RULES are, you cannot add or remove digits, you cannot change the order of the digits that are present, and you cannot simply change "equals" to "not equals"
There is more than one solution, but there is one solution that is the absolute simplest and most elegant. If more than one person comes up with a solution, whoever gets the simplest solution will be declared the winner.

That is certainly a solution, KJ. Can you think of something a little more elegant, using fewer operators? Anyone else?
Well, it's not what I would call elegant, but it has far fewer operators!
0 * (1234567) - 8 + 9 = 1

LOL, I don't think anyone else would get closer, so you are the winner!
Just for fun, the simplest solution for this one would probably be:
0+(1^23456789)=1

You stumped us, KJ! (And I just barely found this thread.)
I don’t know if anybody even saw this, lol. I’m not giving it away, it’s easy.
Easy as Pi you might say
Indeed. At long last...... looks like you’re up, if you want to keep it going.
Whatever happened to Jim anyway?

Hopefully nothing serious...just lost in Red Dead Redemption 2 world!
You got it.
I'm likely thinking about it incorrectly, but it did get me thinking. I was actually going down a path where it landed more times than it took off because at one point it became Air Force One while in the air when LBJ became president, which could result in one more landing than take-off.
