Quote:Incorrect. Circle is the name of a mathematical object. It is relatively easy to produce and generate in mathematics, but doesn't actually exist in the real world due to real-world limitations.Because math doesn't exist in the real world /thread...... A mathematical object that describes a defined area. Tell me, Arac, what is preventing such a circle from existing anywhere there is space to be defined into areas?
