The world is bianary

Featured Replies

the world is analog' date=' not even the binary 1s and 0s in a computer are true, there are never two 1`s or 0s the same, it`s No voltage or A voltage, but take the decimal places of A voltage to the N`th degree, and no 2 "Voltages" will be the same.

so although we can represent a "False" or Approximation of Binary, a computer is Still basicly 100% analogue, the Binary is the Virtual part :)[/quote']

 

Agreed.

 

Our methods or conventions for illustrating a 1 and 0 to a comp uses analog designs, because perhaps other methods are beyond our scope right now.

But this pertains to machine language.

Theoretically speaking it should be clear that any number system, independent of the base, should be as good a the special case of base 10, since they still can represent the complex plane . And hence all the laws of comutativity, associativity, etc hold.Hence every operation performed on base 10 can be performed by a modified operation or set of operations on the otherwise.

I was thinking... can every object in the world be described 100% acurately in bianary, theoreticaly i mean.

 

The question you're trying to ask is "Is the universe discrete or continuous?"

 

Certain theories, like Loop Quantum Gravity, presuppose that it is discrete and therefore could be represented "in binary"

Quanta by itself means discrete.

Light is supposedly delivered in dicrete(quanta)packages...etc

Well, the obvious question is: why would you want to? I can't see any practical application of representing everything[/i'] in binary.

 

A model of the entire universe would be neat.

Maybe we're one of those models, even.

Oops
