> This is a list about computers. So counting does mean for a real life computer application, that something existing is equal to zero? E.g. panel is logical reasoning?
You are not able to understand logic. For a distance the initial value should be zero, for counting, it's common to start with element number one and not with zero. Math is not the same science as logic is. _But_ humans use computers, so the displayed output should be human readable. Zero and infinity are not human understandable, even if both are part of logic, in a different kind of understanding than for math. Theoretical it seems to be a useless discussion, but in practise this kind of sane, non-math logic is very useful. I'm not against math, but I understand the difference between math and logic. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
