    1 + 1 is not equal to a question mark.

      What did 1 minus 1 equal before zero was invented? 🤔

      source
      • marcos@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Yeah, define “zero”.

        The one invented on India at around the Middle Age is a different one. The one you are asking about is very old.

        + is a map from N×N to N where a + 0 = a and a + S(b) = S(a + b) (S is the successor function that gives the next number).
        Then 1 + 1 = 1 + S(0) = S(1 + 0) = S(1) = 2.

      I really recommend the YouTube channel “Another Roof”. His first few videos were building up exactly this idea, as well as building up all the real numbers (possibly complex too if I’m remembering correctly). Sounds like a dry topic but he uses humour really well throughout. youtube.com/@anotherroof

      Not only that, it is mathematically correct, at least given the usual definitions of 1, 2, +, and !

    You can’t put an expression on the left-hand-side of the assignment operator.
