By Standard Math {A,B,C} = {C,A,B} etc … where order has no significance.
In “standard” set theory, yet there are still a significant numbers of ordering distinctions in “standard math”. Even in set theory ABC is distinct form other ordering combinations so the set of all ordering combinations would be {ABC, ACB, BAC, BCA, CAB, CBA}
On top of this basic state of distinct elements, one can use order.
So why do you exclude ordering distinctions in your notions that you claim are primarily about distinctions.
There is an hierarchy of dependency here where some order of {A,B,C} dstinct members depends on the existence of this distinction, but not vice verse.
Expect of course as mentioned above when that distinction between members is only a matter of the ordering of the same group of symbols, like {ABC, ACB, BAC, BCA, CAB, CBA}
So is the case about ON's elements order.
Well as you asserted before since “standard” set theory does not consider {A, B, C} to be distinct from {C, B, A}, are you now claiming principles of “standard” set theory as the basis for your not considering (A,B,C) distinct from (C,B,A) in your notions primarily about distinction and that claims standard set theory is flawed?
But ONs go deeper than distinct only elements and use Distinction in a more comprehensive way, by using n-Redundancy x n-Uncertainty tree, where set or mutiset are some particular case of it.
Obviously not, as you exclude the more comprehensive form of distinction, ordering and are now seemingly trying to infer the exclusion of such distinctions in “standard” set theory as the basis for their exclusion in your “ONs”. By excluding specific forms of distinction, even some that ‘standard’ set theory does not exclude your use of “Distinction” is in fact less comprehensive then standard set theory or even the direct perception that A,B,C is distinct from C,B,A.
We can add “comprehensive” to the list of words Doron simply does not understand.
1) You do not understand the differentness between AB and A,B.
Apparently I understand them better then you as well as “differences” or distinction in general. Where as you seem to simply want to focus on just some very limited and arbitrary “distinctions” that you choose to impose.
AB is a superposition of ids of a single element, so AB or BA is exactly the same thing (Uncertainty).
Then “superposition of ids” or “(Uncertainty)” is the basis of your OM not “distinction”.
Technically “AB” is simply a single identification, if you were uncertain about the id of a single element then that id can take any form A, B, ABC, A+B, C*5, X&#!... just to name a few. So you have specifically and arbitrary limited your “ids” and thus your “Uncertainty”.
2) A,B is for two different ids of two elements, where order has no significance in that level exactly as in {A,B}={B,A} case (we can use this clear A,B ids on order to use it as the basis of some order, but then this is not at the fundamental level).
So once again distinction is not the basis of or apparently even a significant part of your notions.
“we can use this clear A,B ids on order to use it as the basis of some order, but then this is not at the fundamental level”? What kind of compost are you shoveling now? If you are going to “use this clear A,B ids on order” then it is not “the basis of some order” particularly considering that “A,B” is just some particular order and not the ‘basis of order’. Again a lack of distinction does not limit ordering changes it just makes the results of the application of such changes indistinguishable.
For the number 8, element identifications like 5+3, 4+4, 4*2, 2
3, 16/2, (6
2-4)/4 or 4
2/(6-4)… to name just a few . Are far more comprehensive in “standard math” as they lack your restrictions, imposed distinctions and often include very specific distinctions of ordering.
Were we to reverse the numerical order of the first three examples we would have distinguishable different orders, expect for 4 + 4 where the numerical elements are indistinguishable so such an applied reversal of the numerical order is also indistinguishable. However, as far as representing the number 8 goes, none of those ordering changes are distinguishable from the other in that representation. For the fourth and fith examples such numerical ordering reversal again results in distinctive order, but this time that reversal is also distinguishable as no longer being representative of the number 8. The final 2 examples represent very specific changes in the order of the same group of symbols. While that particular ordering change does not distinguish those two examples from each other as being representations of the number 8, any other ordering changes most likely would. Standard mathematics is far more rich, far more comprehensive, far more flexible, actually self consistent and thus far more useful then your limited, contradictory and useless OM compost.
3) We also use, for example A,A (Redundancy of two elements, etc ...).
In that particular case changes in order are simply indistinguishable since A,A is indistinguishable from A,A. Once you do choose to distinguish those elements then ordering changes likewise become distinct. A lack of distinction does not prevent ordering changes it just makes them as indistinct as everything else when lacking, well, distinction.
4) Here is an extension of ONs where also 0 case is considered, for example, let us use
2-Uncertainty x 2-Redundancy tree:
Code:
2X2
(AB,AB) (AB,A) (AB,B) (AB) (A,A) (B,B) (A,B) (A) (B) ()
A * * A * * A * . A * . A * * A . . A * . A * . A . . A . .
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
B *_* B *_. B *_* B *_. B ._. B *_* B ._* B ._. B *_. B ._.
(2,2) = (AB,AB)
(2,1) = (AB,A),(AB,B)
(2,0)= (AB)
(1,1) = (A,A),(B,B),(A,B)
(1,0)= (A),(B)
(0,0)= ()
The beautiful thing about ONs ( as clearly shown in
http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showpost.php?p=4895440&postcount=5000 ) is that all these preperties (whether they are ordered or not) a reduced into a single organic structure.
That specifically excludes or considers indistinct certain ordering distinctions in your notion that you claim is primarily concerned with distinction. As shown in the previous post more distinctions are excluded then included, so you have quite a bit missing from your “single organic structure”. Additionally as you limit your “ids” and “uncertainty” to very narrow scopes your notions are not at all “comprehensive” even just considering “ids” and “uncertainty”.
