Hey, I'm new here. I wanted to ask a question about infinity - I've been playing with something in my mind.
If you define infinity as a number that is greater than all numbers except itself, and negative infinity as a number that is less than all numbers except itself...
Couldn't both infinity and negative infinity be two "aspects" of an unsigned number - some kind of inverse zero, where:
For zero:
All negative numbers < 0 < All positive numbers
For "inverse zero"
All positive numbers < "Inverse Zero" < All negative numbers
It's probably just a crackpot idea...can someone show me if this is even remotely possible or not?
