The Circular Number System

    SAY WHAT?
Okay, lets define briefly what a number is, and how it fits on a number line. In order to understand some concepts we need to go back to the elementary basics.

Now, I'm sure you've never thought about what makes a number a number, but there are four things, there is

• The base (usually 0)
• The Incriment (usually 1)
• The Power (usually 10
• The Terminator (usually infinity)

Okay, think that was meaningless, right? Well, fact is that there are ways to alter all four of those

The Incriment can be modified using scientific notation, and the metric system. This can be seen in computers mostly. If you have 300KB of data, it is actually 300,000 bytes, but since you are only counting by KB, hte incriment is 1000

The Power is the easiest to explain, and defines many number systems. There are several different conventional power selections

• The Binary system deals with powers of 2 (0,1)
• The Hexadecimal system deals with powers of 16 (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,a,b,c,d,e,f)
• The Octawhatever system (I'm not sure its exact name) deals with powers of 8 (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7)

You can manipulate the Terminator can be altered using various equations. Try the equation x^2/(x^2+1) the positive terminator of that equation would be 1, and the negative terminator, 0 since there are no solutions in the real numbers that can go above or below those respectively.

Okay, so now that you know that useless information,we will move on

MAYBE YOU SHOULD GET TO THE POINT ALREADY?
Ah yes, my intelligent thinking does get ahead of me, butanyways time to move on. Number lines...Ah yes. Number lines are one dimentional representations of numbers plotted on a single line, something like this...

-INF<----(-3)----(-2)----(-1)----(0)----(1)----(2)----(3)---->INF

Is that accurate? Well, that is the problem. Infinity is a number, and any number must have hte opportunity to be added to, or subtracted from. You also have hte problem that, since infinity is the multiplictive inverse of 0, how can you have two of the same thing?

This is why infinity has to be ONE number, not two...so...how do you, using a visual representation, combine infinity from the positive and negative sides? Why of course, a circle! Damn I'm good

Anyways, while reading the rules to the number circle hypothesis, think of the number circle, as the earth. On earth, there are two poles. If you can imagine further, try to vision the earth as a flat disc, and walking along the east,west hemosphere lines around the world.

• The circle, like any other sphere or circle. On the top of hte circle (the 'north' pole), we have the number infinity, on the bottom (the 'south' pole) we have the number zero
• Addition occurs in a counter clockwise motion, subtraction occurs clockwise. (number lines add to the right, subtract to the left)
• The base and powers of all number systems, occur on a single point of the circle. In order to interchange between these points, you will have to have a number called a transmitter (I will explain that at another time)
