This is a theroy that i have come up with...

1.there is an infinite nuber of decimal places inbetween 0-1

2.A human being/computer/animal/nothing!! ! can count to infinity

3.so math destroyes itself...

4.0 is the only number mathimaticly

Your argument is invalid.

You may surprised to hear, 0 being a number at all is a fairly rare innovation in the global histories of mathematics.

How is it invalid it makes perfict sence... :?

you cannot count to infinity therefore the onlything you can count is nothing = 0 :)

This is veryinteresting... but with my idea would make prety much every mathamatical property destroy itslef...

because...(unless you use icredible quantum flux mechanics its is physicly imposible to cout an infinite amount of somthing.
and with any kind of mathimatical equation, inequality, whatever... have zero for evry varible it will equil 0!! !

Define "math destroys itself."

There is no need to be able to count numbers to be able to have math.

On the contrary, I think the infinity of numbers is what makes math possible. Imagine how difficult it would be to perform any calculation if there were really a last number, say, 22. How much math could you do with a limit to the possible numbers you can use?

And, indeed, as calculus shows, the fact that the real numbers are dense and continuous makes many calculations much easier.

FFS i cant take clac till next year... :?

however it to a humans capibilitys impossible to count to 1... :roll:

Your argument is invalid. It cannot match to reality. If it were true, practically nothing would exist.

Well, I exist, and I'm typing this, and if I don't exist, I'm the imagination of someone else, which is real.

reality is your interpritation of what you want it to be...

so its bot true and faulse that 0 is the only number...
quantim coherence apperently is not your strong suit... :roll:
