1 is the largest positive integer

[LCKurtz]

Proof: N² > N rules out all the others.

Proof: N² > N rules out all the others.

The same proof shows that 1 is also the largest negative integer.

I would like to clarify that while 1 is indeed the largest positive integer, it is not accurate to say that "N2 > N rules out all the others" as a proof. This statement is based on a faulty assumption that all integers follow the same pattern of increasing by 1, which is not always the case. In fact, there are infinitely many integers that are greater than N2, such as N3, N4, N5, and so on. Therefore, it is important to use mathematical principles and rigorous reasoning to support our claims, rather than relying on generalizations and assumptions.
