From: Archimedes Plutonium on 9 Jan 2010 16:03 I already said that the two-dot ellipsis was reserved for Finite numbers where the definition of Finite is 10^500 and below (ditto for inverse). Now can I well-define the Incognitum? This is a little ways beyond the Finite realm and although we would never see this in Physics because a number such as 10^-500 Kelvin is never obtainable, nor is 10^-501 Kelvin. So in physics the Incognitum would be unneccessary. But in mathematics we trespass beyond the number 10^500 frequently. We have prime numbers, alleged prime numbers that are far beyond 10^500. So in mathematics, a concept of Incognitum-numbers maybe highly suitable. So can we well-define the Incognitum? If so, then we need the three-dot ellipsis to indicate a number in the Incognitum. Finally, then we reserve the four-dot ellipsis for Infinite-numbers.
