Seven fun facts about the 4th dimension
- 1 1. Gravity
- 2 2. Platonic solids
- 3 3. Surfaces
- 4 4. Flatness
- 5 5. 3D vision
- 6 6. Eight legs
- 7 7. No need for bridges
In 4D, gravity is now 1/r³
In 4D, instead of there being five platonic solids like 3D, there is a sixth one called the 24-cell
5D and beyond have only three platonic solids
In 4D, surfaces are 3D, even the ground is 3D, and holes would be 3D
In 4D, 3D objects are flat
In n-dimensions, n-1-dimensions are flat
And this is because a whole dimension is unoccupied
In 4D, beings will likely percieve the world in three dimensions
Don't start me with "wE cAn aLrEaDy sEe 3d"
Humans see the world in 2D, then our brains construct 3D-ness
But if you ACTUALLY LOOK AT YOUR VISION FOR ONCE, there are two visible axis, but there is always one direction perpendicu…

How to multiply any two 2-digit numbers together in your head
How to multiply your head
Times the ones places (remember the number)
In AB x CD, do B x D
Times A x C x 100
Add it with your step 1 result
Times A x D and B x C
Add those two results together and times it by 10
Add that to the rest of it

Why are there 60 minutes in an hour instead of 50, why are there 360 degrees in a whole?
- 1 Why why why?
- 2 Metric versions
- 2.1 Decimal Time
- 2.2 Gradian angles
Basically time is a Babylonian measurement, invented by the Babylonians who used a positional base-60 system, this means the radix was 60 so each digit was a progression of the powers of 60, and they had digits ranging from 0-59, and my brain was 60 years old /J
One minute was defined to be 1/60 of an hour, 60 seconds, and one hour was 1/24 of a day, which would make sense in a base-60 world, furthermore a day was estimated such that ~360 of them make a year, 360 also had many factors as of being a Highly composite number and a Superior highly composite number, so they decided to cut up a circle to approximate the Earth's orbital as ~1°/day, this was then known as the standard way to…

I found an observation within the Highly Composite Numbers
Dunno if anyone has made this observation but I dont care, gimme the credit /Joke /LightHearted
I have made an observation of the prime factorisations of the HCN, I call this "Prime Replacement"
I started out realising this by seeing that in the prime factorisation, there is a lot of prime factorisation of a factor being replaced by the subsequent number's factorisation
On the normal regular wikipedia, the HCN page does say:
"Note that although the above described conditions are necessary, they are not sufficient for a number to be highly composite. For example, 96 = 25 × 3 satisfies the above conditions and has 12 divisors but is not highly composite since there is a smaller number (60) which has the same number of divisors." -Wikipedia, 30th …

Many arguments for why we cant visualise 4D stem from "we can only see 3D" altho in reality this is not true, check your eyes for confirmation
Everything we see is just a 2D projection of a 3D world on our retina (which is 2D), we can see two dimensions fully at once and this is because the direction we are facing (our line of sight) is perpendicular to our eyes, meaning anything consisting of a dimension within our line of sight will be pointing away from us and appear one dimensio…

Remember this super-long and absurd pattern (idk):
0 5 8 8 2 3 5 2 9 4 1 1 7 6 4 7
Multiply your remainder by 6
If your number is from 1-50, subtract 1
If your number is from 51-100, subtract 2
Find your 2 digit number in the pattern, both digits should be together
Continue the pattern from the 2 digits

Multiply the remainder by 7
If the result is 49 or greater, add one
If the result is 98, change it to 100
Check the last digit UNLESS if your result is 50 or 100
The last digit should otherwise be one of the numbers in the '1 4 2 8 5 7' pattern
Continue that pattern at the last digit so it repeats
If your result is 50, add 0.5 as the decimal part
If your result is 100, you dont need a decimal part so just add one to your number

Japanese math
Japanese mathematics, often referred to as Wasan (和算), is a distinct mathematical tradition that flourished in Japan, particularly during the Edo period (1603-1868), when the country was largely isolated from Western influences. The term "Wasan" was coined in the 1870s to differentiate native Japanese mathematics from Western mathematics (yōsan) that was introduced after the Meiji Restoration.
Here are some key aspects of Japanese mathematics (Wasan):
Decline of Wasan: With the Meiji Restoration in the mid-19th century, Japan opened up to the West and adopted Western mathematical techniques. This led to a decline in interest in Wasan, as Western mathematics became the standard for education and research. However, Wasan's legacy, particularl…

Is Fourth Dimensions Real?
Hey guy you know fourth dimensions right?
But i am wonder is fourth dimension is real?
no, seriously we all know all dimension like:
- First dimension (No space and time)
- Second dimension (Short space and time)
- Third dimensions (Full & perfect time and space)
- Fourth dimension (Infinty time and space)
There is also Fifth dimensions and Sixth dimensions but because is doesn't make sense about of infinty space and time and because is a fictional dimension so is doesn't make sense for math
but if fourth dimension is real, what will happened to us
well we will probaly get in trouble with the earth and is caused some problem:
- Fourth dimension = same universe and never can't get out of the universe
- fourth dimension = voyager 1 will stuck in oort cloud forever…

Surreal Games and Numbers
As many who are into recreational mathematics may have heard about, there is a certain class of numbers which defies all intuition even among those who have worked with the likes of the infinitesimals found in calculus or the transfinite ordinals and cardinals contained within set-theory. These numbers are truly so out of this world they have been called surreals for a reason.
When researching surreal numbers however, a friend wished to know how they are related to games of Hackenbush. Frankly I've always more interested in trying to understand the technical definition of surreals than with some stick-figure game, but putting all hesitancy to the wayside, I will explain how both work to form the marvelous class of numbers John Horton Conway ma…

From Wikipedia:Equivalence relation:
An Equivalence relation is a generalization of the concept of "is equal to". It has the following properites:
- a}} (reflexive property),
- if b}} then a}} (symmetric property), and
- if b}} and c}} then c}} (transitive property).
As a consequence of the reflexive, symmetric, and transitive properties, any equivalence relation provides a partition of the underlying set into disjoint equivalence classes. Two elements of the given set are equivalent to each other if and only if they belong to the same equivalence class.

Proof that 1+2+3+4+5....... is NOT = -1/12
We can first start out by simplifying adding all previous numbers to the current number. If you want to solve 1+2+3+4..........+n, an equivalent way to solve this is, (n+1)(n/2). Examples: 1+2+3 = 4*1.5 = 6, and 3+2+1 = 6. 1+2+3+4 = 5*2 = 10, and 1+2+3+4 = 10.
Now, summing 1+2+3+4+5+6.......+∞ = (∞+1)(∞/2) = w*(∞/2) = w + ((1/2*w)-0.5) ~(approx) w+(w/2). Therefore, 1+2.........+∞ is NOT = -1/12.
Successorship
Successorship is adding one to any number.
As an example, n+1.
Adding one is just moving one place to the right on a number line.
n+1 is always equal to n+((1/n)*n)
Some examples:
1.) (S)3 = 3+1 = 4
2.) (S)4 = 4+1 = 5
Using repeated successorship will grant you the opportunity to use addition, or just repeated successorship.
Plex count
The plex count has similar notation as log, but it is right above the exponent.

Addition and subtraction take up this space.
Transformation from Level 1-Level 2:
Exponents, roots, logs...
Thansformation from Level 3-Level 4:
7^7^7^7^7^7^7=7th plex 7
Plexes, arc plexes...
The third plex of x is x^x^x^x.
The 4th arc plex of x is the number that you had run through 4th plex to arrive at x.
Ex. 2nd arc plex of 27 is 3.
Please comment below on shortcut math one can use to find arc plexes!
Clifford algebra
- 1 Rules
Clifford algebra is a type of algebra characterized by the geometric product of scalars, vectors, bivectors, trivectors...etc.
Just as a vector has length so a bivector has area and a trivector has volume.
Just as a vector has direction so a bivector has orientation. In three dimensions a trivector has only one possible orientation and is therefore a pseudoscalar. But in four dimensions a trivector becomes a pseudovector and the quadvector becomes the pseudoscalar.
All the properties of Clifford algebra derive from a few simple rules.

I can create a number that in not on the list.
The first digit is 0
0.
The next is the first number's 10s on the list +1. (If it is 9, make it a 0.)
0.6
The next is the second number's 100s on the list +1.
0.68
Then, it continues.
0.684167836728460162738462868...
The number is not on the list.
How about the 383rd number?

Symmetry in Mathematics Play A Great Role
If we square 11, it is very simple put 1(2*1)(12)get 121 same as square 12 put 1(2*2)(22) get 144 again for 13 we get 169 and for 14 we get 1 8 16=196 and so on.
When we go deep, we find that there is symmetry of two types
(2,4,6,8,10,12 ,14,16,18,20 …. Diff is always 2) &
(1, 4 , 9 ,16,25,36,49,64,81,100 ) diff. is 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19 and diff. of 3 5 7 9 11 always 2, so there is True Symmetry .
Up to 19 it is right but at 20 how we can put 1 20 100 just because of symmetry.

Various Research Involving the Floor Function
After reading your article on Rounding, I see that you do not have much information regarding the floor function. I've been working with it on my own for a few years and recently I decided to compile my collective knowledge into one document. I would like to propose that the math wikia add some of the floor function information to the wikia. It's reasonably easy to understand (at least, in my opinion). I know it isn't really filled out too much, but let me know what you all think.
Thanks
