Dream Interpretation | To dream of pondering over addition, denotes that you will have a struggle to overcome difficult situations, which will soon prominently assume formidable shapes in your business transactions. To find some error in addition, shows that you will be able to overcome enemies by fortunately discerning their intention before they have executed their design. To add figures with a machine, foretells that you will have a powerful ally who will save you from much oppression. If you fail to read the figures, you will lose fortune by blind speculation.

Addition is one of the basic operations of arithmetic. Addition combines two or more numbers, the summands, into a single number, the sum. (If there are only two terms, the summands are the augend and addend respectively.) For a definition of addition in the natural numbers, see Addition in N.
See also: counting
Important properties
When adding finitely many numbers, it doesn't matter how you group the numbers and in which order you add them; you will always get the same result. (See Associativity and Commutativity.) If you add zero to any number, the quantity won't change; zero is the identity element for addition. The sum of any number and its additive inverse (in contexts where such a thing exists) is zero.
Notation
If the terms are all written out individually, then addition is written using the plus sign ("+"). Thus, the sum of 1, 2, and 4 is 1 + 2 + 4 = 7. If the terms are not written out individually, then the sum may be written with an ellipsis to mark out the missing terms. Thus, the sum of all the natural numbers from 1 to 100 is 1 + 2 + ... + 99 + 100.
Alternatively, the sum can be represented by the summation symbol, which is the capital Sigma. This is defined as:
The subscript gives the symbol for a dummy variable, i. Here, i represents the index of summation; m is the lower bound of summation, and n is the upper bound of summation. So, for example:
One may also consider sums of infinitely many terms; these are called infinite series. Notationally, we would replace n above by the infinity symbol (∞). The sum of such a series is defined as the limit of the sum of the first n terms, as n grows without bound. That is:
One can similarly replace m with negative infinity, and
for some integer m, provided both limits exist.
Relationships to other operations and constants
It's possible to add fewer than 2 numbers. If you add the single term x, then the sum is x.
If you add zero terms, then the sum is zero, because zero is the identity for addition. This is known as the empty sum. These degenerate cases are usually only used when the summation notation gives a degenerate result in a special case. For example, if m = n in the definition above, then there is only one term in the sum; if m = n + 1, then there is none.
Many other operations can be thought of as generalised sums. If a single term x appears in a sum n times, then the sum is nx, the result of a multiplication. If n is not a natural number, then the multiplication may still make sense, so that we have a sort of notion of adding a term, say, two and a half times.
A special case is multiplication by -1, which leads to the concept of the additive inverse, and to subtraction, the inverse operation to addition.
The most general version of these ideas is the linear combination, where any number of terms are included in the generalised sum any number of times.
Useful sums
The following are useful identities:
The mathematics, behind this first identity, were demonstrated by Carl Friedrich Gauss, during the 18th Century
In general, the sum of the first n mth powers is
- (see geometric series);
- (see binomial coefficient);
where is the kth Bernoulli number.
The following are useful approximations (using theta notation):
- for every real constant c other than -1;
- for every real constant c other than 1;
- for every nonnegative real constant c;
- for all nonnegative real constants c and d;
- for all nonnegative real constants b > 1, c, d.

Addition of natural numbers is the most basic arithmetic operation. Here we will define it from Peano's axioms (see natural number) and prove some simple properties. The set of natural numbers will be denoted by N; zero is taken to be a natural number.
The Definition
The operation of addition, commonly written as infix operator +, is a function of N x N -> N
a + b = c
a is called the augend, b is called the addend, while c is called the sum.
By convention, a+ is referred as the successor of a as defined in the Peano postulates.
The Axioms
The first is referred as AP1, the second as AP2.
- a+0 = a
- a+(b+) = (a+b)+
The Properties
- Uniqueness: (a+b) is unique. i.e. If (a.b) also satisfies [AP1] and [AP2] then (a.b)=(a+b).
- The Law of Associativity: (a+b)+c = a+(b+c)
- The Law of Commutativity: a+b = b+a
Proof of Uniqueness
We prove by mathematical induction on b.Base: (a.0) = [by AP1] a = [by AP1] (a+0) for all a
Induction hypothese: (a.b)=(a+b) for all a
- (a.b+)
- = [by AP2] (a.b)+
- = [by hypothese] (a+b)+
- = [by AP2] (a+b+)
Proof of Associativity
We prove by mathematical induction on c.Base: (a+b)+0 = [by AP1] a+b = [by AP1] a+(b+0) for all a,b
Induction hypothesis: (a+b)+c = a+(b+c) for all a,b
- (a+b)+c+
- = [by AP2] ((a+b)+c)+
- = [by hypothesis] (a+(b+c))+
- = [by AP2] a+(b+c)+
- = [by AP2] a+(b+c+)
Proof of Commutativity
We prove by mathematical induction on b.Base: a+0=a=0+a and a+1=a+=1+a for all a
Proof of base is by mathematical induction on a.Induction hypothesis: a+b=b+a for all a
- a+b+
- = [using the base] a+(1+b)
- = [by associativity] (a+1)+b
- = [by hypothesis] b+(a+1)
- = [using the base] b+(1+a)
- = [by associativity] (b+1)+a
- = [using the base] b++a

Lexicography | Devil's Dictionary | HADES, n. The lower world; the residence of departed spirits; the place where the dead live. Among the ancients the idea of Hades was not synonymous with our Hell, many of the most respectable men of antiquity residing there in a very comfortable kind of way. Indeed, the Elysian Fields themselves were a part of Hades, though they have since been removed to Paris. When the Jacobean version of the New Testament was in process of evolution the pious and learned men engaged in the work insisted by a majority vote on translating the Greek word "Aides" as "Hell"; but a conscientious minority member secretly possessed himself of the record and struck out the objectional word wherever he could find it. At the next meeting, the Bishop of Salisbury, looking over the work, suddenly sprang to his feet and said with considerable excitement: "Gentlemen, somebody has been razing 'Hell' here!" Years afterward the good prelate's death was made sweet by the reflection that he had been the means (under Providence) of making an important, serviceable and immortal addition to the phraseology of the English tongue. |
