You might already know that I love math. Other people...don't. So, if you want to discuss math, or publicly declare your hate for it, do it here.

Our first topic here to get the train rolling is something I refer to "Mathematical Reasoning." Don't Wiki it or Google. My mathematical reason is probably not the same as normal mathematical reasoning. I just like the name. Mathematical reasoning is characterized by two key traits:

- Use of math in non-physical or non-conventional situations. (Physical situation would be something like "If you throw a ball in the air how long would it take for it to hit the ground.")

- Use of math as a method of reasoning.

While this is a relatively new idea I thought of, it has some potential. Or maybe I'm wrong, maybe it's just useless like half of the other math threads I post here. Take for example the problem below:

True = False

OBVIOUSLY, the truth is not the same as a lie. However, when we substitute two ideas for integers or variables, we get this:

x = -x

X is true, while -x is false. Just like -1 is the opposite of 1, false is the opposite of true.

x^2 = (-x)^2

Now, we get to the interesting part. Basically, this equation says the following: A true truth is the same as a false falsity. Think about it. If someone tells you something to be true, and it turns out to really be the truth, then that truth is true, making it a true truth. If some tells you that something is false, but it turns out to not be false, then it is a false falsity.

NEATO.

Could this concept have any use anywhere other than the example given? I need to know if I'm bored or creative.

OR, if you don't want to discuss my idea, discuss something else math-related.


PS - Should I start referring to myself as Milo again, since everybody knows my identity?
