Mathematically speaking, what is an ‘Axiom’?
In: 621
Think of the game of tag. There are some basic rules that you need to accept in order to play tag:
1. Someone is “it”
2. others are not “it”
3. when “it” touches someone who’s not “it”, that someone is now “it”
If you do not accept those rules, you do not get to play tag.
Likewise, in order to do math you must accept certain things a a given. Sorry I don’t have a good example, but someone else might be able to.
