A Game of Four
In this math-based forum game, starting from 0, you have to create a whole number using only four numbers. (For example, the answers should all go like 0, 1, 2, 3...) But here's the catch: You can only use the number 4. You can use as many exponents, expressions, and parentheses as you want, but the numbers should always be 4. It's kinda hard to explain, so good luck to all! with a low grade in math!

Let's begin (this one's stupidly easy):
(4 - 4) + (4 - 4) = 0

4/4 + (4/4 - 4/4) = 1


You have to do it in order >.>

(4 + 4)/4 = 2.

(4+4+4)/4

4 + 4*(4 - 4)

(4*4+4)/4

(4+4)/4 + 4

4 + 4 - 4/4

4 + 4*4/4

4 + 4 + 4/4

(44-4)/4

[(4x4) + (4x4) + (4x4) - 4] /4 = 11


guys, can you do like equals signs after all of your equations? It's hard to follow what number we're on with Doughboy shotgunning the whole thing and people making mistakes. Anyway, I presume we're on twelve, so...

-snip read rules wrong-

ok ten and eleven were done wrong because ten used a 44 and eleven used more than four numbers so one sec

nvm this is too hard

11 was done right, you can have as many numbers as you want, so long as they are all fours.

What the Heck.  This game is going to get impossible very quickly if you can only use four numbers total.

It is possible. I've seen people make it to 60.
Hint: LOGARITHMS!

log(4) = 0.602

am I doing it right

4444 = 3.402823669209384634633746074 3177e+38

You could write it out as 44 (tetration) but he said to only use exponentiation. 44444 equals some stupidly large number anyways.
oop

4 * (4 - (4/4)) = 12
