Go use Google and Wolfram Alpha to find the answers to "how many fashion items are for sale on the internet?"

If you can do that, I'm truly impressed by your google-fu. Also, as I said, the fashion items question is a problem I faced at my last job.



I highlighted your question, right-clicked and chose to Google it, and it was answer number 3 on the returned results. I suspect Alpha would give more useful detail, but then I really think that wasn't what you were looking for.

Slightly more seriously, going to Google first for ANY such problem would highlight both what is already known about the issue, and profitable answers to look for further information.


Then why wouldn't you ask a real-world question like that, rather than a stupid one about filling a bus with golf balls?
