Hi again Ron. Do you consider interger units to be representative values or quantities? Like you imply, with quantities you have to assume that your comparing apples with apples, but with values the units could relate to anything. Applying ususal MOQ zealotry to the rounding problem I think you produce another kind of maths thats no bloody use to anyone. To be accurate you have to show some factor that allows the two sides to be equated precisely by assigning relative values to the different units as well as an element that specifies quantity.
So instead of saying 1+1=2 you have to say a1+b1=c(a1+b1) where: a = unrealised absolute value of apples, b = unrealised absoute value of bananas c = absolute comparative value between apples and bananas. The observer assigns their own assumed values to the absolutes and everyone gets a different answer. In fact the more I think about it all I'm doing is translating language into a less comprehensible numerical system of expression. Its like you cant "solve" the equation at all, because to to be accurate every term you introduce has another unknowable (oxymoronic) dynamic "constant" applied to it and to its absolute relationship to the other terms. If you compare static patterns of different levels I think it gets even worse as, as the terms are all derivatives of each other. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Ron Kulp > Sent: 17 April 2007 18:01 > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [MD] Heads or tails? > > > Kevin, > The function of the round is the simplification of a value as > it relates > to reality. > Absolute whole values are an abstraction.
