/sci/ - what is a number? - Science & Math

>>16923218
A number is the abstract, conceptual quantity (signified) represented by a specific, tangible written or spoken symbol (signifier), such as digits, tallies, or words. What's surprising is that familiarity with manipulation of those signifiers is most of the time a good enough susbtitute for true understanding of the signified

>The Number 1 is 1 set with one element
1 is distinguished from 0, thus it is a set of 2. Otherwise 1 has no definitional relation to anything else, making it arbitrarily valued.

A number is a symbol that represents a ratio portion of the total Pi quantity of base building blocks that exist in the universe.
Math is the relationship between their movements and positions.
The various fields of mathematics are different complexities of interactions of the base building blocks, as they form larger shapes and parts up the Planck scale, and build new tracks for larger pieces to travel upon in new directions of travel, building more gimbal angle vectors of movement.

No, 0 is implicit in 1 since 1=1+0=1.000..., so there at least has to be two arithmetic elements that make up the number 1, if you don't consider the infinite string of zeros that follow to each be its own element based on decimal indexing and are only actually considering the integer 1 instead of the number 1.

No, he's right. You missed an opportunity. Just try to be more creative next time and workshop your ideas a little more.

Bitch.
