    I'll give you credit for the creativity. If tetrations weren't so useless, this would probably be a good notation, but given that some math teachers even never heard of tetrations talks about how useless they really are. They're rarely ever used, and exponential combined with tetration is not something as useful. I like the notation symbol, it is unique, and creative, but the idea itself not so unique. Take for example: ³(2²), this can be written as ³4 = 4^(4⁴), same for (³2)², it's the same as (2^(2²))² = ⁴2. Great notation, but in application, quite useless as tetration is also useless.

    This introduces geometric combinatorial limits with the whole curved line thing as there is only room for tetration, plus there is Knuth's up-arrow notation which is already a perfect notation, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

    Because higher-order operations get precedence, tetration is implicitly done before exponentiation, thus ²x³ is already (²x)³ without ambiguity. The other form, ²(x³), risks looking like the a'th root of x^b in your notation.

    I think that notation is good when it's coherent. Not when it's easier to write down. The notation for a subset for example could also be like three dots in a row but it wouldn't be coherent with the notation for a set and an "is equal to". It's a fun idea but it's not very efficient, especially when you consider that math should be as simple to understand as possible, since it is a language and the following generations will have to learn it.

      @Brother_K 3 місяці тому +1

      This is for distinguishing exponentiation from tetration, which is some niche operation. It’s essentially to exponentiation what exponentiation is to multiplication. If you had two tetrated to three you’d have 2^2^2^2, which comes out to 65536. Three tetrated to three gives a number too large for most calculators. The numbers get very large very fast and there aren’t many applications so you won’t see it outside of pure math.

    It’s just an invented function involving tetration. So it is possible to solve the tetration problem with equation systems. That leads to a finite sum but get a good approach like that. tet_2(1) = 1+z+y =2. tet_2(2)= 1+2z+4y = 8 and tet_2(-1) = 1-z+y = 0. This excellent approach lead me to get any points of tetration without to calculate with complex methods (and unfortunately fails).

      @wyboo2019 8 місяців тому +1

      the little number on the left is something called "tetration." you know how multiplication is just repeated addition? like how 2*3=2+2+2. and exponents are like repeated multiplication, so 2^3 is 2*2*2. tetration is repeated exponents. so ⁿ2 (sorry, n is the only superscript i have on my keyboard) would be 2^2^2^...^2, n times (if you're wondering if this is done left-to-right or right-to-left, the usual way people do it is right to left, so like, the third tetration of 2, would be 2^(2^2) instead of (2^2)^2. this guy is just making new symbols to more easily write down a combination of exponents and tetration. the first one, ⁿ(x^a), equals (x^a)^(x^a)^...^(x^a), n times. the second one, (ⁿx)^a, is (x^x^...^x)^a, where there are n x's.
      also in my opinion people mostly don't like math because schools suck at teaching interesting math. i think the best video to get into the really interesting math is a video called Hackenbush, look it up. it's a video about the math that studies two-player, turn-based games, but you'd barely even know its math until he starts getting into the logic behind it. i promise it's good

    • @kiilee5963
      @kiilee5963 8 місяців тому

      @@wyboo2019 I appreciate the effort you took to type this out, I simply take it that tetration simply reverses 2^6 (2x2x2x2x2x2) into 6 being a smaller number to the left (6^2) which still gives 2x2x2x2x2x2, I do not really understand what is the use of it but I guess it is just there just like mostly anything that is there in math.
      and yes I agree people who grew up not liking math is because it is really difficult to teach it especially to multiple different students or maybe the child might just get uninterested which is me, I usually find solving equations fun when I really know how to and my teacher actually tries to explain how to, but there is bad days where my brain shuts for thinking way tooo much on a problem and I am damn near giving up.
