Hmm. It might fit with what a computer scientist might expect (or
rather, not be surprised about), but I don't think you can say that
it's "logical".

Where's the logical progression in step 3 here:

1 You asked the computer a question

2 The values you passed to it don't have decimal points

...

4 Ergo, you wanted an answer that was incorrect.
