Sadly while have some "rumpy pumpy" with the wife, I came quickly.

She said "Is that it?"

I replied, "WHAT????"

Each spermatozoa has 1,560,000,000 base pairs.

Each side of these base pairs can either be an adenine-thymine or a guanine-cytosine bond which can be represented in 2 bits.

I have just released 200,000,000 sperm cells inside you.

1.560*10^9 * 2 bits * 2.00*10^8 comes out to be 6.24*10^17 bits.

That's about 78,000 terabytes of data in 2 minutes, approximately 650 terabytes a second.

And you have the cheek to ask is that it?

Ungrateful wench! :p
 
I laughed.

Then I wondered if 2 bits was necessary to represent the value of a base pair. Wouldn't 1 bit be enough? 0 = A-T, 1 = G-C.
 
I have two issues with this thread. It's not funny and its not Tuesday. :p ;)

I would have two issues except the fact that as it's not tuesday it means it's currently wednesday and therefore my birthday. Actually it is tuesday. I don#t blooming know, I'm too old for days now.

So thanks OP for ruining my birthday, hope you're happy :(
