🔢There is a limit to the biggest number one can describe.
🎩The paradox of Berry's paradox shows that the first number that cannot be described is actually describable.
💻An algorithm for truth, based on data compression, can determine the simplicity and complexity of a string.
ℹ️Information is the resolution of uncertainty and can be measured in bits.
🧩The Kolmogorov complexity is the shortest possible string that describes an object.
Is there a limit to the biggest number that can be described?
—Yes, there is a limit to the biggest number that can be accurately described.
Can any number be described in a shorter way?
—Not all numbers have shorter descriptions. Some numbers require writing out every single digit.
What is the algorithm for truth?
—The algorithm for truth is a process that finds the shortest string that accurately describes a given input data.
How is complexity measured?
—Complexity can be measured by the number of bits needed to describe an object. The shorter the string, the simpler the object.
What is the Kolmogorov complexity?
—The Kolmogorov complexity is the shortest possible string that describes an object, representing its simplicity and information content.
