Definition / description
We are developing ways to define the concept of "comparison" in terms of dimensionality and values in dimensions. As possible, we want to define fundamental mathematical and arithmetic/algebraic operations in these same terms.
Forms of comparison to be defined in dimensional terms:
- Equality ("two things are equal to each other")
- Identity ("two things are identical")
- Similarity ("two things are similar")
- Difference ("two things are different")
- Metaphor ("two things are similar or identical in some dimensions")
- Analogy ("one thing is like some other thing")
- Also - simile, parable, other intuitive forms of comparison
What are these "things"? We are using the term "object", at several different levels.
