>needing subtraction
LMFAO pleb just add with negatives
>>8501218
but thats a subtract sign
>>8501214
>not just increment and negate
fucking retard
brainlets get off my fucking board
>>8501218
OP BTFO
>needing anything more than a generic operation
But, anon.
You don't need subtract.
Just add a negative number.
>>8501214
can I make an argument for the modulo operation?
would it be possible to do math without any operators
>using anything but your fingers to count
Is this board full of brainlets ?

I stopped caring about math when I was introduced to the concept of negative numbers. What a crock of shit. If your equation can only be solved by inventing numbers that can't exist, like some kind of math deity , then you are fucking wrong and the math is flawed. Same for algebra solutions that basically say "the correct answer is whatever the correct answer is". Thats what the math said transcribed to words but god forbid if i wrote in down in english instead of the ancient math runes the teacher word mark me wrong.
Math is logical and numbers never lie my ass. Math is just as flawed as any other human construct.

>how does one divide with only additions?
you subtract a small number from a big number and add up how many times you did it before you got to 0. bazinga-mate

You got it backwards, it's addition you don't need
early computers didn't have an add fucntion. They used negative subtraction for all their programs. If the universe can be described through some universal mathematical formula then subtraction is the only true mathematical function of the universe because everything is entropic.
