Well, physics becomes math the moment you want to use representation in the form of symbols to show relations. Same in economics too. Algebra really is about working with a bunch of symbols and make them tell a fact and lead to conclusions. For example, the number of pictures, variable
p, can only grow upward and that there's no such thing as deficiency going beyond 0 picture and to negative. That's call setting a lower bound to a variable.
This would be statistical analogy.
Let's see...P
== Σp ==
p1+p2+p3...+ pn.... Variable uppercase P is the sum of every single picture in all threads, each unique
p being defined as number of pictures in a specific threads, and there will be lower bound to the number of threads, at 1. n denotes the upper bound of the number of threads. You build on variable and that's why physics get really ugly.
By the way, mathematical argument is true for sure when it comes to where it is applied. /u/ is a case where Girl+Girl trumps all. Unfortunately, people can be in /b/.
