More elegant? Until you need to write 5 thousand flowers to express the number 25,000

3 symbols is great except that you have to write 7 different symbols to represent 19. 9 symbols for 234. That’s not elegant at all.

Dammm right! About time someone says it... The Mayan Time Sages were beyond the geniuses of today! They knew about the big bang and counted towards ad infinitum. 😌🙏🏽

This is a terrible take. Base ten allows interest calculations to be easy, that was a massive reason for the growth

Oh yeah? Their math let them do lithography and determine quantum states?

so they would have to use 5 symbols to equal 9 when we only need 1

That's a pictograph system, though, are pictographs or numerical adaptations that we use to quantify numbers in between one and infinity. The pictograph system can only go up so high before you have to write so many characters t equal a trillion, but we have ways. To write out one point trillion

I'm sorry for those who say they invented the concept of zero. Even Babylonians Had a zero before mayans but they never knew how to use it. The indians gave it the rules, math is abt rules and not Symbols
