Violet Elizabeth Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 So are we talking "countable infinite" or "uncountable infinite" here ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAG Posted June 3, 2003 Author Share Posted June 3, 2003 in·fi·nite adj. Having no boundaries or limits. Immeasurably great or large; boundless: infinite patience; a discovery of infinite importance. Mathematics. Existing beyond or being greater than any arbitrarily large value. Unlimited in spatial extent: a line of infinite length. Obvious ain't it 🤔 😬 😬 Justin Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

Violet Elizabeth Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 Ah, but UnCountableInfinite - CountableInfitite is not zero. Some infinites are denser than others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAG Posted June 3, 2003 Author Share Posted June 3, 2003 Noger - you've lost me! I guess some Blatchatters are denser than others. What on earth is a "CountableInfitite" 🤔 🤔 Justin Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

Hibster. Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 An ex of mine did her thesis on Infinity, I typed a lot of it for her, it made my brain hurt, lots of stuff on high orders of infinity The work she did on cluster analysis was much easier to get to grips with, it only made me feel sleepy Paul If ya' can't say somethin' nice, don't say nothin' at all.

Violet Elizabeth Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 Get a load of tennis balls. Then put them in a pile and count 1,2,3,4,5 .... until you reach infinity That is countable infinite. (and also first order infinity). Now think of all the numbers you can 1, 1.1 , 1 and a half , 2 , 3 , 3.1415, 7 ..... and all the ones in between....until you reach infinity That is non-countable infinity So if you had infinite time to search for a needle in an infinte haystack ... you would never find it .... as time is a lower order infinite than space. How that translates to irresistable force and innovable objects I have no idea. p.s. it doesn't really make sense Edited by - Noger on 3 Jun 2003 17:13:40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooby dooby doo Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 presumably time is a higher order infinity than 1-d space but lower than 3-d space. what about 2-d space 🤔 HOOPY R706KGU 495 kg 200 bhp Hoopylight R - finished this weekend i hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossybee Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 "cluster analysis" Is that as in "Ooh, me clusters are killin' us" Ross Very Black 6spd SuperSport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Elizabeth Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 er, now I am guessing but I think time, being a single dimension, and 1d space, being a single dimersion are of similar orders of infinity, being as space is third order. Ouch. that will be me banging my head into my level of understanding then Clusters 😬 or rather 🙆🏻 *mad* - painful little bleeders 😳 Edited by - Noger on 3 Jun 2003 19:49:51 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hibster.
