The Digit and digit symbols
Digit has {b} ; b is the count of symbols
b is the base of the digit and is the symbol count b symbols 1 0 2 0,1 3 0,1,2 ... The symbol count is necessary. The symbols can be any set of marks. If you count and come to the end of the symbols you have, there are 3 choices: 1: give up 2: make another symbol 3: add another digit If you add another digit you must have a carry mechanism and your digits make a polynomial in b. It is easy to show that any multi digit number can be made into a single digit by choosing a new base that is old b to the digit power. I make machines that do math. Anyone interested in this kind of stuff? |
