When Strings Beat Numbers
Circle the smallest number. 3 10 Tell or show how you know the answer: '3' > '10' true
A worksheet asks the student to circle the smallest number between 3 and 10 and explain the answer. The response shows a programming comparison where the numbers are treated as strings, making '3' greater than '10' because of lexicographic ordering. The joke is aimed at programmers who recognize this classic type-coercion or string-comparison mistake.
