NaN is specifically not a number.
> typeof NaN "number"That is a valid point. Also, I learned something about JavaScript. Thank you!
Conclusion: Javascript is Neutral Evil
Always has been
Well, it’s something like the difference between
{ x: null }and{ }.
Well, at least it is used in place of a number. But what about QED.?
NaN makes for a better Chaotic Evil, QED could just as well be Neutral Evil.
However QED always stands in the bottom right corner, I guess that makes the author of this chart lawfully evil
Unless it is Quantum Electro Dynamics.
X can be a number.
X is a letter.
data: NaN
data: 1
NaN is 0
If you change “number” to “vector” you’d have mathematicians agreeing with half of those.
But a vector is a number, no?

A vector is a thing that can be added together and scaled in “the intuitive way.” That is, for example, if a and b are numbers and v is a vector, then av + bv = (a+b)v (vector addition distributes over scalar multiplication). The prototypical example is the collection of arrows rooted at the origin on the 2D plane, where addition has a simple geometric interpretation (you put the tail of one vector at the tip of another, the resulting point is the new tip) and scaling is “stretching.” But it really could be anything that adds and scales.
Not really.
klein bottle is a number
It’s true, my great grandma just turned klein bottle years old
I’ve taken like four or five advanced trigonometry courses and I still can’t really define what trigonometry is. Mathematics is like Andrew Tate’s Hustler University scam. If you take one class, it only exists to prove that you’re a mark and sell you more classes.
Trig is basically the study of a wiggly line and how it turns out to be useful everywhere
I have a masters in math and I have no fucking idea what a second course in “advanced trigonometry” looks like much less a fifth
Pythagoras: Everything that exists is a number. Except irrational numbers. Fuck those things.
