Chapter 357: Logic
Teacher Euclid, what are you going to do next? " Su ye asked.
"The magic market in Sparta is too small, and there are no magicians who are proficient in geometry. I just want to stay here, read a book, and leave tomorrow after the Athens envoy confirms the news." Euclid said.
"You don't forget all the old friends in Sparta, do you?" Su ye looked sideways at Euclid.
Euclid thought for a long time, and said, "I can't think of any friends in Sparta."
"You won. However, I happen to be fine, why don't we talk about geometry?" Suye asked.
"Do you really know geometry?" Euclid looked at Su ye suspiciously.
Su ye really wants to say that he knows better than you now, but he can't tell later.
"I just asked you for advice because I didn't understand. I believe that you must have heard of Feynman's technique, and now is a good time for you to use Feynman's technique." Su Ye said.
Euclid hesitated for a while, and said, "Well, I don't like wasting time very much, but you are different. I still believe in someone's eyes."
"Aristotle." Su Ye said.
"Yes, that's him."
Next, the two began to discuss knowledge about geometry.
Su Ye discovered that Euclid's geometry knowledge was completely limited to the geometry of the Pythagorean school. However, unlike the disciples of the Pythagorean school, Euclid always felt that the geometry of this school was useful. Some kind of flaw, but he couldn't find it.
At this time, Euclid neither knew Eudoxus' theory of proportionality nor heard of Aristotle's syllogism, so naturally he could not create the foundation of later science on the basis of these two, the axioms change.
Su ye has been hesitant to say it directly, but he always feels that if he wants to talk about axiomatics, he has to talk about syllogism, and he also needs to talk about proportional theory, but these three kinds of knowledge are too grand.
Bi theory makes up for the defects of Pythagorean geometry, syllogism is the foundation of logic, and axiomization is the foundation of science that is never easy. Most people don't realize the true value of this knowledge for quite a long time.
In the end, Su Ye refrained from expressing, and only discussed within the existing geometric framework, never mentioning theorems or axioms, nor the most basic axiomization.
Besides talking about geometry,
The two occasionally talked about other things. At first, Euclid was a little disgusted. He obviously felt that Su ye was wasting his time, because he wanted to unswervingly pursue the ultimate truth of the world for the sake of the hundred thousand golden eagles. Deal with Su ye.
But as the discussion deepened, Euclid completely forgot his original intention and began to seriously communicate with Su ye on mathematics, geometry, philosophy, magic, history, culture, civilization and other aspects.
During the chat, Su ye occasionally wrote and drew on the magic book.
"Don't remember too many knowledge points, you must remember the most basic things. Once we rely too much on superficial knowledge points, we will inevitably ignore the real principles." Euclid reminded kindly.
"Extraordinary like you, you only need to remember the basic things, but ordinary people like me, not only remember the basic things, but also important knowledge points, and explore the whole world through the connections between knowledge points. However, I It wasn't the knowledge points that recorded the most just now." Su Ye said.
"what is that?"
"The way you think, the way you think about problems, or a logical line."
"Logic?" Euclid's eyes lit up.
Su ye realized that he had made a small mistake. The logic was formally established by Aristotle, and Aristotle should not have said it yet. However, in this kind of communication, there is really no way not to mention this most basic word.
"Logic is derived from the word logos created by Master Heraclitus, the Lord of Fire." Su Ye had no choice but to explain.
Euclid suddenly stretched out his hands and grabbed Su Ye's wrists, his eyes were like a hungry lone wolf seeing delicious roast beef.
Su ye was so frightened that he almost kicked him.
Euclid shouted excitedly: "I like Logos the most! Logos is the origin of magic, and Logos is the foundation of the world. Although there are differences in the magic world about the Logos theory of the Lord of Fire, but More and more people accept it. Can you tell me what logic is? I have a feeling that there must be great power hidden in this word.”
Su ye remained silent.
In philosophy and magic, Logos is equivalent to the "Day". It can be said to be the law of magic or the origin of magic, but now it represents more of the latter.
Su Ye pondered for a long time, and said: "I often go to Lion Harbor and think about problems facing the sea. In fact, I am ashamed to change the words of the master at random, but I always feel that the word Logos is too big. It is better to refer to the origin of magic. The power extended by Logos, for example, magic or the most essential connection between things, a constant relationship or law that exists, can be called logic.”
"Of course, my understanding of this word is still very superficial, but I have a feeling that logic is a word that will shine in future generations." Su Ye said vaguely.
"That's right! That's right! The origin of the world is logos, and the most fundamental connection between the worlds is logic! It's so wonderful, so wonderful..."
Euclid let go of Su Ye suddenly, got up and walked around in the living room, his face flushed, trembling with excitement.
"Logos, logic... Yes, the word logic is so wonderful! I always feel that there is something missing in the geometry of the Pythagorean school, yes, it is logic, it is logic! Oh my god, Su Ye, you are such a genius, Sorry, I underestimated you! Starting today, Plato Academy has changed from four masters to five masters. If you must keep the title of four masters, then kick out that barbarian warrior Alexander! He just wants to be the king of the world, And we want to be king of philosophers and kings of magic! He is not worthy to stand side by side with the four of us! His highest position is only to occupy a few poor pages in the history books, while the real Plato will occupy the minds of human beings for thousands of years. Forever!"
Su ye stared blankly at Euclid, who was dancing and dancing. What he said was actually correct. Although Euclid and other masters did not occupy as much space in the history books as Alexander, their thoughts did indeed occupy the future generations. Everyone's brain.
However, I didn't expect Plato Academy to have such a chain of contempt.
"Logic, logic... It's so wonderful! It's so beautiful! This is definitely the best thing after Logos... No, no, no, this is the best thing equal to Logos. Dear Suye, You are the light! You are the gods! You are the king of philosophers! Get rid of Aristotle, you are the real disciple of Plato! Aristotle is an idiot, he is not as good as you, the logic you created can crush him In front of you, he is just an ant, hahahaha... I suddenly understand why he looks at ants every day, because he is observing himself... Don't tell him that, he is cruel." Ou At the end of Ji Reed's words, the enthusiasm in his eyes faded a little bit.
Su ye couldn't laugh or cry. It seemed that Euclid and Aristotle often discussed the profound principles of magic, and it seemed that the two had differences, but they were only differences in ideas.
"Ahem, I also discovered the word logic after chatting with Teacher Aristotle a few days ago, and I was inspired by the experience of Lion Harbor." Su ye said hurriedly.
"No, no, it's me, it's me. Besides you, I am the first person who knows logic, and Aristotle is at most the second... well, don't tell him, I want to speak Tell him what logic is, and he will be stunned and look at me with great admiration, not daring to laugh at me as a little golden magician anymore, hahahaha..."
While talking, Euclid walked up and down in the living room like a little crab with its teeth and claws open.
Su ye smiled. These masters are really more interesting than each other.
Euclid was excited for a while, and said: "I don't care about you anymore, I'm going to study this logic, it's really wonderful, I don't even want to go to the Marathon Plain... But even if I get there, I won't leave the camp , I will always study this logic, and I feel that there is something special in this logic, a kind of truth, which can help me pursue the ultimate truth of the world. It's so wonderful, so wonderful..."
Euclid walked out of the reception room waving his arms.
The guard at the door was dumbfounded, and Julius looked calm.
"Why, he didn't scare you, did he? Just get used to it." Julius said indifferently.
"It's not bad, it's about the same as I imagined." Su ye smiled.
"I know all the four elites of the academy. Except for you and Alexander, the other three are crazy." Julius said.
"Alexander... Didn't he defeat Komodes?" Suye asked.
Julius said: "The two of them usually fought each other, and there was no winner. He only stayed in the First Academy for less than half a year, and he didn't catch up with the Gladiator King Competition. However, Komodes said that one-on-one , He is confident that he can defeat Alexander, one hundred against one hundred, he can tie the two sides. However, if the two sides lead thousands of armies to fight, Komodes feels that he will not even have bones left."
"Yes, Alexander's talent is not in combat skills, but in strategy. You and Alexander should have a good relationship, right?" Su Ye said.
"It's okay, he's a little taciturn, and he's dizzy, I don't like him," Julius said.
Su Ye almost rolled his eyes, and said, "I take back all the words I said about your vision. You will regret your choice for at most ten years. You should not judge a king with the eyes of judging a gladiator."
"What the hell are you talking about?" Julius was shocked.
"Let's not talk about that, is there enough money?" Suye asked.
Julius said with tears: "Suye, what is Alexander's background? I really don't know, I just think he is a weird and talented fighter. He is not interested in us gladiators. I fawned on him for a long time at first. If he doesn't care, I don't bother to care about him, I won't offend him, right?"
Suye thought for a while, and said, "If one day he leads his army to Sparta, remember to surrender early."
"Don't scare me..." Julius was about to cry.
