Description
This week was all about different number systems that other cultures use, as well as different processes. As an off-shoot from that, for this week's discussion let's build our own number system!
What do you want to do? Here are some specific questions to think about:
- What would the numbers look like? Would you make them easy to write, or complicated to discourage forgery?
- Would you like our system to be simply grouping, multiplicative, positional, or something else?
- What sort of base number do you want it to have: 10? 20? 50? 130?
- Can we perform operations on our system? What would those look like?
Don't limit your discussion to just these questions. You all as a group need to develop the number system and then we'll see how well it can be put into action.

difficult way that will discourage the people from involving in avoid forgery.
The system to be used should be positional; this is because of the different advantages
that the positional systems are associated wi...
