What's the sum of 1 to infinity?
I'm not retarded enough to think -1/12
But sums by definition are finite.
Is the question nonsensical?

>Is the question nonsensical?
Yes because infinity is not a number so there can be no sum of anything with infinity
Leo Wilson
(1.504785 × 10^186) volume of universe in planck lengths
(2.312437104× 10^62) current age of the universe in planck time
(3.47972×10^248) amount of numbers G it would take to give every planck length in the universe a unique number, for every planck time that has passed since the big bang.
(2.046507 ×10^196) number of years it would take to count every number in G assuming you could count one number every planck time.
(13.7 × 10^9) current age of the universe in years
(10^103) predicted age of the universe when heat death will occur
(2.046 × 10^93) number of consecutive universes from birth to heat death required to finish counting G, which didn't even really matter to count, but also was a bajillion universes ago so having completed counting is completely irrelevent to information in the current universe.
Infinity doesn't need to exist in maths. There is literally no reason a real number would even have to be as large as any number listed here, yet all of the numbers here are infinitely small compared to infinity, even despite the fact that the universe is often considered infinite.
10^93 consecutive universes were required to finish counting G at the fastest speed possible. A billion universes would be 10^9. A trillion would be 10^12. Not a billion, not a trillion, not even a grape ape gorillion. 1 with 93 zeros after it. That many individual full life term universes needed to exist in order to finish counting G, an arbitrary number based on stupidly miniscule but finite values.
You can't even make it two minutes pondering how big infinity could go counting in increments of a million each second.
Infinity doesn't need to exist in math. The concepts of eternity will remain, but a number quantity infinity is just goofy bullshit. It's too big to matter.

Adding finite values to infinity results in infinity ya dumb cunt

>sum by definition are finite
This is not true for indefinite sum, which can converge (ex. 1+1/2+1/4+.....+1/inf=2) or simply diverge like 1+1-1+1.....+1-1...= no finite value. Then you can continue them in weird ways and obtain that 1+2+3+4.....=-1/12 but this is another story
Samuel Adams
>Infinity doesn't need to exist in math
Neither does logic, then. Math is used as a means of distraction for the intellectual masses who would other overthrow the state were they not preoccupied wasting their life away solving proofs. Imagine thinking this arbitrary nonsense has any basis on real life

> infinitely
infinitesimally, brainlet
Ayden Murphy
You dont need logic at all. You're right.
It would just be shitty math.
What's your point?
Ryder Hernandez
Infinitesimal is a made up word that means nothing. All numbers are equal to 0 compared to infinity.
