Examples of 'edges' or 'limits' of logic or proof
Examples of 'logicedges'
• √2 cannot be written as a ratio of 2 numbers (demonstration)
• Consistent theories * contain a statement that cannot be proved within that theory (demonstration)
• Observing very small particles disturbs them unpredictably **;
• Very small particles are best described with a wave which requires the use of the square root of -1**.
*sufficient to be able to describe counting natural numbers.
** from quantum physics currently giving the best scientific description of particles.
