if we knew the co-ordinates of all the points on a large number of
other strings, after an interaction,could we deduce exactly what the
co-ordinates of each point on the single string were at,or before, the
time of interaction?
If we couldn't deduce exact co-ordinates, would the uncertainty in the
co-ordinates deduced for the single string be smaller, for a larger
number of interactions?
