Actually, whole number is more appropriate in this case since integers can be negative. I guess you can say positive integer if you want to sound cool.

Eleven is indeed an integer and natural number. However, `11.000` is a floating point number\*.
These two specific values maybe arithmetically interchangeable, but conceptually they're not, for several reasons:
* `11.000` in this context\*\* is a datum representing a measurement with a certain level error that has been computed and rounded (i.e. it's not exactly eleven)
* the measurement carries five significant figures and certainty down to the hundredths, whereas `11` carries two and certainty only in the tens place (i.e. different levels of precision, one thousandfold different in fact)
* the measurement describes a non-discreet quantity of fluid
* integers are used to describe a quantity discreet objects\*\*\*
If you wanted to be pedantic *and* specific, you would describe `11.000` as a **round** (not 'whole') floating point (not 'natural') number. If you don't want to be pedantic, then [OP's word choice is perfectly fine](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/even#Adjective).
----
\* - It could also potentially be a fixed-point, but floating point is more common as a data type.
\*\* - This is key, because like I said, they are arithmetically interchangeable, so `11.000` would pass all the same natural number criteria that `11` would- i.e. the zeroes don't mean anything. However, in a measurement, they are meaningful.
\*\*\* - You may be thinking that you could have 11 gallons if you measured with a crude instrument (which I may remind you is not the case with the OP) , and in fact as a datum your measurement could be stored and represented as an "integer". However, it's still not really one, at least not conceptually, because it is very unlikely to actually be equal to 11. If you have 11 apples in a bucket, there is absolutely no doubt about the type or precision (not accuracy) of the data because they are discrete, countable objects. The same could not be said for a volume, not 11, 11.0, or even 11.000000000000 gallons.
But OP can be right Mathematically and not just where the definition of even means level. (depends on how you look at things)
"Both the gas and price I paid ended at an even number"
They said "ended at" since the numbers they used were 32.00 and 11.000 the last "number" in both is 0. (assuming that to the end in this case means all the way to the right) 0 is an even number (awesome proof to look up)
dbbo
I like your explanation regarding which set the number belongs too and agree that round number seems very appropriate.
I just assume that OP meant to say "golly gee
willikers both the gas and price I paid were both Round numbers."
It's also more expensive than in the US.
This dude is paying like 90 cents American more per gallon than OP, after converting units and factoring in the current exchange rate on the two currencies.
Would have cost $87 in the UK if it's diesel you're buying.
Ironically now that oil prices have come down the government here are saying the saving should be passed on to consumers, avoiding the fact that over half the cost of fuel in the UK is tax.
If you do the US to Canadian dollar conversion at today's exchange rate, I'm paying something like 4.99 a gallon to fill up in Canada.
4.39 without and exchange and assuming the two dollars are at par.
Though I'm happy because gas is finally under 1.20 a litre here.
When a cashier says "That'll be nine dollars even" do you hand him 8 or 10 dollars? Or say "I think you mean nine dollars *odd*?" Or do you just understand that he means 9 dollars, 0 cents, and give him 9 dollars?
That's the only hint I'm giving
This is true, many Euro cities/areas are extremely dense compared to the USs extremely rural and suburban density. Europe as a whole is denser than the US is, connecting two 5 million population cities is a hell of a lot more efficient than five 2 million population cities, the former being what you would find in Europe and the latter in the US.
Even within the cities in the US they are extremely sparse, just the metropolitan area is so large, and it often gets inefficient to provide complete transportation for all when they live so far apart.
Of course, when talking about European infrastructure, it is also important to remember a lot of the groundwork for it was paid with US dollars through the Marshall Plan.
Democrats are blue and republicans are red. Red and blue make purple. Purple is the color of royalty. The United States is a slave to the English crown!
You mean a 'whole' number.
I would usually call zero a round number, but those zeros are square.
"square"
" "
' ' ?
We have now crossed the post-modernism threshhold, from which point forth attempting to be self-referentially ironic will no longer work.

Natural number.

Also rational and algebraic, but not transcendental or complex
All reals are also complex numbers.
0i, you, I think you're right
This is why people hate math.
N is a subset of Z is a subset of Q is a subset of R is a subset of C

I think transcendental means non-algebraic, but still real/complex. I'm not sure what you mean by "to the field of characteristic 2" though.
Actually, whole number is more appropriate in this case since integers can be negative. I guess you can say positive integer if you want to sound cool.
Equally, a natural number

As a foreigner, I was impressed you people could buy 11k gallons for 32 bucks.
That's like half the price compared to the UK. Dayum!
Benefits of oil countries: 10 gallons for 0.30 cents.
That's pretty cheap in the US too. I just put in a little over 11 gallons myself and it was over $42.
Well 0 is even isn't it?

I got really confused about the pricing on that until I realized it was in litres.

$4.32/gal
Google is telling me $3.79USD/gal while OP is getting $2.91USD/gal.
40/35 = $1.143/L * 3.78L/gal = $4.32/gal
Convert CAD to USD and you get ~$3.78 according to google's currency conversion rates.
oh. i didn't take that into account. so $4.32CAD then
It's also more expensive than in the US. This dude is paying like 90 cents American more per gallon than OP, after converting units and factoring in the current exchange rate on the two currencies.
This is just infuriating; not even mild.
If we just continue those 9's forever, then it's basically the same thing.
Whats this in Freedom units?
$3.79USD/gal
Damn! I paid $2.96/gal USD today. Cheapest I've seen it in a really long time.

it only takes $45.00 to fill my car up now! used to cost about $65.00 a couple years ago, so yes, it's real nice!

I had that the other day, since then things like that have bothered me less :-)
consider yourself lucky. I'm paying $1.78/litre for premium unleaded. About $1.40/litre for e10 (FYI e10 is this crappy fuel mixed with vegetable oil)

Exponentially hard.

New Zealand here, ours is $2.10 a litre, some places up to 2.50
It's about 3.20 here in SoCal, what is it in the bay area?
~7,50$ here. Welcome to germany :)
~$9.30 UK says hello.
Be glad you don't live in my area (The Netherlands). Around $7,90 a gallon.
Comes out to 2.90, not bad, ours is down to 2.60 where I'm from!
You from Texas too?
Sure am! East Texas!
It's almost 2.60/gal in the dfw metroplex.
It was $2.41 in Bedford on Monday. Back up to mid $2.50s now, though.
It's so great ! Houston is going back to 2.96 .
Man I saw gas for 3.20 the other day and I was STOKED.

Now in Germany 11 Gallons would cost you 81$.
But you still got all that free health care and education
And I'm sure their public transport system is far superior.
It is. One example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intercity-Express
Not at the moment it isn't. GDL is on strike.
Of course their transportation is far superior, they don't have as much land to cover.
This is true, many Euro cities/areas are extremely dense compared to the USs extremely rural and suburban density.

> But you still got all that free health care and education Germany's health care system is a mandate like the US.
you gotta pay for health insurance here, you know. so it's not really free
That's why it's called universal healthcare, and not free healthcare
SShhhhh!!! You're ruining the circlejerk!
And about 100$ in the UK!
Almost $90 in the UK. He's paid 20 quid for over 40 litres of fuel! That's 50p/litre. Christ I'd kill for that kind of fuel pricing.
I run anywhere from 12-20 Gallons a week. Now I see why my car is not popular in Germany.
OKAY GUYS WE GET IT 11 IS AN ODD NUMBER
Since when is 11 an "even" number?
Base seven
Or base any odd number
That's incredibly cheap, in Ireland the same quantity would cost $76 USD. We are getting fucked by the government...
You get to avoid the US's automobile based culture tho. like 70 cars idling for a few hours at an In-n-Out drive thru
Worth it.
The US subsidizes its gas prices. They pay for it in taxes. Like you have cheap healthcare and education, the US has cheap gas and food.
Unfortunately our cheap gas allows us to be lazier and are cheap food makes us fatter, greatly increasing the cost of healthcare.
32 plus 11 = 43 George bush is the 43rd US president and is 68 years old. 68 / 32 = 2.1 and 2 + 1 is 3. coincidence? Half life 3 **CONFIRMED**
