Yeah but when you imagine a point, you're not really imagining a true point. You most likely think of it as a tiny sphere. Even if you are imagining a true point in a mathematical sense, you can't imagine the point without imaging what is around the point. So it has to have a location in x and y at least. You could even say the z dimension is there since when imagining this point, you are imaging it in your mind's eye as an observer would. We are completely trapped in our viewpoint of the world of it being at the least in three dimensions probably even four because of time.
- uniqueid 6y agoI think a point, in the sense I was thinking about, maps to a boolean: it either exists, or does not exist. It's not even a line which can have a distance, so there's nothing else for itself to relate to.
- polishdude20 6y agoOh that's a good way of thinking about it.
