I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

You might be right about that, Joe.

Well, assuming it's a recurring set, wouldn't it be J? :)

Yes :P

Can somebody just post what the letters represent, just in case somebody hasn't figured it out yet? :)

Code: [Select]

function get_set_value($index) {

 $m = array('January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June', 'July', 'August', 'September', 'October', 'November', 'December');

 $s =  $m[ (($index % 12) + 1) ];

 return substr($s, 0, 1);

}


:)

Edit -- Made it recursive! :)

Yet again, should we credit Sidoh with getting the answer first? :)

Of course!

Everyone else: 0

Hehe, just kidding.
