This question makes no sense at all. That's what my nueral network tells me.

Hi There are many rule-of-thumb methods for determining the correct number of neurons to use in the hidden layers, here are just a few of them (the number of input/output units is usually known as you are aware of the them):
1) The number of hidden neurons should be between the size of the input layer and the size of the output layer.
2) The number of hidden neurons should be 2/3 the size of the input layer plus the size of the output layer.
3) The number of hidden neurons should be less than twice the size of the input layer.
Regards
