um i don't get it

your the most negative person on earth?

Actually your quotes are inherently false. The size of a number deals with just that, it's size, such as 2 is bigger than 1, but -4 is bigger than 2. However greater and less deal with the value of the expressed number, so any positive number is greater than any negative number. So negative infinity (negfinity) would be the largest of all the negatives, but not the greatest, and it could never be greater than any positive number. But a nice play at abstract math concepts.

do you have to give everyone crap for everything?

Negfinity, greater than infinity, then to all...

I think that, aside from the fundamental flaws I pointed out already, he is trying to say that "negative infinity is greater than infinity and thus greater than everything". Seems to me like a fallacious and superfluous way to say that negfinity is greater than everything.

OK, guys listen. These quotes are true, but you can't understand what it means except to me.

These quotes is trying to mess up your minds of what the quotes mean. It's true, but you won't understand.

This one I don't understand. I'm not sure if the title is correct, or if it's just completely grammatically incorrect...

MY BRAIN, ITS ON FIRE, THE PAIN!!!!!!!

Then everything you have said is a complete waste of time. Anyone can make up some random nonsense with absolutely no value.

mrwalker, i congratulte you on staying out of an arguement thusfar with your reactions and ignoring the people when they speak bluntly, but the quotes do have a purpose and I personally got them. He has said he's sorry if they don't make a perfect math sense in a logical form, but it's ok to explore a bit in a non mathmatical way.....

Not if you have OCD and/or Asperger's Syndrone....sadface for Isaac

that last bit wasnt meant to be quotes ^^^^^^

soz for double post

I think it means you have a big ego and think you have wasted space on the threads for a useless question/ statement

Is it due to the fact the negfinity can be any negative number, therefore since negininity can be any negative number, it can be larger than any other negative number.
For example
- 1 < Negfinity
-4199656 < Negfinitity

Correct?

Negative times a negative is a positive.

Negfinity is the only negitive number that is greater than all in negitives
