Philosophical Math - elvinguitar - 04-08-2011
Let's start any math topic/statment here that's philosophical. So I'll start:
1. This sentence is false.
Is what I've said a true or false statement? Haha.
Share your ideas and opinions.
mile:

It depends which way you look at it.
Conditionally your statement is true.
The sentence however is false.

mile: But i already forgot the techniques in Math because I don't review my reviewers and I already stopped practicing solving different problems.

Wow, that is strange but would be interesting to study.

Tough question
If the sentence is false then i mean that i'm saying the truth abouth the sentence's fallacy.
mile: This simple sentence is very complicated. I already forgot to prove it using set theory. sorry.

Your statement is a paradox.
If the statement is false, the sentence is true.
If the statement is true, the sentence is false.

you're absolutely correct mate! It's a paradox. hahaha!
But if you're good in set theory, you can prove and get the correct answer. but unfortunately, I'm not that good in math anymore.
