Times Table Answers

Sorry, Repeated

The block above is sorry 100 times, or 599 characters. The buttons rebuild it at 1,000 copies and at 10,000, where the block reaches 59,999 characters and the download earns its place.

Repeat it 100, 1000 or 10,000 times

100 copies — 599 characters.

Six characters a copy

“sorry” is five letters with one space between copies, so N copies come to 6N minus 1 characters. Each copy is one word, so a thousand copies is a thousand words.

Copies Characters Words
100 599 100
1,000 5,999 1,000
10,000 59,999 10,000

10,000 copies is a file, not a paste

At 10,000 copies the block is 59,999 characters. That is past what most chat boxes take in one message and past what a phone clipboard handles comfortably, which is why the same text is offered as a .txt download. The 100-copy block, at 599 characters, pastes anywhere.

What fits in one message

  • A single GSM-7 text message is 160 characters, which is 26 copies.
  • Discord’s cap for one message is 2,000 characters, which is 333 copies.
  • The 1,000-copy block, 5,999 characters, needs three Discord messages, or 40 SMS segments at 153 characters each.

Longer apologies

i am sorry is ten characters, the same weight per copy as i love you, so a hundred copies runs 1,099 against 599 here – not quite double. please is one character longer than sorry, which adds 100 characters over a hundred copies. For anything else, type it into the box or start at repeat any text.
