Four Layers of Equals

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)



Posted by: Steve Zimmerman

I. Traditional mathematics
A. The equals of identity
B. Variable = Variable

II. Computer Science
A. The equals of storage
B. Address = Address

III. Universality
A. The equals of everything
B. Universal_quantifier Existential_quantifier
Universal_quantifier

IV. Idempotence
A. The equals of ontological belief
B. oB = oB /* ontological belief */

One of the things I lament about the human condition is that
although the fourth layer, my own invention, is
a crucial layer contributing to the organic whole of
the equals series, I am unwilling
to communicate it due to the immense level of abuse and
superciliousness my original theories tend to garner. I am,
quite simply, tired of putting up with the abuse.

The third layer, Universality, I got from _A NKS_, and the
logical expression "For all existents, there exists, all
existents" is in its three-character form, unless I am mistaken,
somewhere in Dr. Wolfram's endnotes.

Go ahead and flame away if you wish; as per my policy, I
shan't read any of your replies. I use these posts selfishly
for my own benefit, without apology.

Thank you to the gentleman Dr. Wolfram for providing this forum.
