Why I care about numbers
- robobro 13y agoNumbers are just a different kind of language, according to Ludwig Wittgenstein. He was interested in language and meaning too. You may enjoy his work On The Foundations of Mathematics, where he explores that idea more in depth.
- softatlas 13y agoIt isn't merely words that have "great power" but the speaker of certain words at given points in history. Language at its base is a set of conventions and agreements. Witty would say this.
