As its quite clear what everyone was looking for.. lets put a period to
this.

I fully agree with John Clog says "What most disturbs me about this question
is that it is a trick question. Trick questions do not measure a student's
knowledge of the subject, they measure the student's ability to avoid being
outsmarted by a teacher who is trying to defeat him.  The only acceptable
use of this kind of question is as part of a learning exercise that will not
receive a grade.  In that context, it is quite effective. "

U all have a great weekend and don't think of 7th or 8th grade Math books
brain washing your weekend.. I know my friends in India will definitely find
something really funny on "Dr. GOBAR"..

Bye
Raghu

I had a great time "Looking for Mr Gobar" on Google.  and now

> Digit:

So if the example had been 364, the last digit is still 6!

Have a weekend, everybody.
