Argument
I want to start an argument! Is the mathematics itself some thing other than scientific notation? I like to proceed this way that mathematics is like a mirror and has reflective properties. It is like a machine where its input is the physical universe and the output is a logical translation that is free of Change! I can only plead the argument of Lord Kelvin:
I often say that you can measure what you are speaking about, and express it in numbers, you know something about it; but when you cannot express it in numbers, your knowledge is of a meagre and unsatisfactory kind; it may be the beginning of knowledge, but you have scarcely, in your thoughts, advanced to the stage of Science, whatever the matter may be.
