4. Area of the office where I work, 0.01 m2.
Sorry, I don't get what that 0.01 means...

You should give the answer with 0.01 square meter accuracy (so not 20 m2, not 20.4342356645 m2, but 20.43 m2).

Right.

However, I used more digits... :D

Damn it, I misunderstood, and thought that the unit is 0.01 m2 (as a trap for those who don't read everything). So the value I've sent is [area in m2]*100.

But I understood your tip even before, and took that into account the way you wanted.

Thanks, and thanks everyone. It was an accident (broken jaw) caused by a zero IQ hero at Hegyalja Festival. I will NOT go among such people anymore. I would rather stay between the frields, family and the hills.

Thanks. 1st week (now): only with straw (e.g. soups homogenized by a mixer). 2nd-6th week: only puply food (no chewing). After 6th week: gradual training of my jaw, towards the real solid food. My bottom lip lost its sensitivity almost completely for several months.

I would probably die from starvation around the second week. Hope you'll manage better.
