	Number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The arithmetical operations of numbers, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, are generalized in the branch of mathematics called abstract algebra, the study of abstract number systems such as groups, rings and fields.
		The existence of complex numbers was not completely accepted until the geometrical interpretation had been described by Caspar Wessel in 1799; it was rediscovered several years later and popularized by Carl Friedrich Gauss, and as a result the theory of complex numbers received a notable expansion.
		The first known use of numbers dates back to around 30000 BC when tally marks were used by stone age peoples.

	P-adic number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		of p-adic numbers is an extension field of the rational numbers.
		The p-adic numbers were motivated primarily by an attempt to bring the ideas and techniques of power series methods into number theory.
		The simplest introduction to p-adic numbers is to consider 10-adic integers, which are simply strings of digits in which you allow an infinite number of digits to the left, for example, the number...9999, and then do arithmetic with such numbers as usual.

	Grammatical number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Grammatical number may be thought of as the indication of semantic number through grammar.
		Dual number existed in Ancient Greek, and it is often found in Indo-European and Afro-Asiatic languages.
		Additionally, number-marking may also occur via morphological agreement where the number must be marked similarly in all words referring to the same object.

	number definition - Dictionary - MSN Encarta
		Careful writers distinguish between quantity ("an amount of something") and number ("a total or estimated total of persons or things that can be individually counted"), as in A large number [better than quantity] of people had gathered in the square.
		Therefore, you must use a singular verb with number preceded by "the": The number of lab coats available is limited.

	11: Number theory
		Number theory is one of the oldest branches of pure mathematics, and one of the largest.
		Questions in algebraic number theory often require tools of Galois theory; that material is mostly a part of 12: Field theory (particularly the subject of field extensions).
		For example, "additive number theory" asks about ways of expressing an integer N as a sum of integers a_i in a set A. If we set f(z) = Sum exp(2 pi i a_i z), then f(z)^k has exp(2 pi i N z) as a summand iff N is a sum of k of the a_i.

	Oxidation Number Encyclopedia Article @ NaturalResearch.org (Natural Research)
		In chemical nomenclature, the oxidation number (formerly known as the Stock number) of an element in a molecule or complex is the charge that it would bear if all the ligands were removed along with the electron pairs that were shared with the central atom.
		Find More Information about "Oxidation number" in NaturalResearch.org's:
		The approximation is that the electron pairs forming the coordination bonds are mostly associated with the ligands: this is a good approximation for most Werner-type complexes, but much less true for organometallic compounds as well as for certain hydrido complexes, dithiolene complexes and nitrosyl complexes.

	What's a number?
		The rest of the complex numbers could also be defined by adding this new number i to the set of reals and postulating that usual arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication) apply to the expanded set and all the laws known to hold for these operations hold for the new set as well.
		The rest of surreal numbers (included are the numbers we discussed so far and myriads of numbers some of which I have a difficulty imagining.) are formed starting with 0 and applying just two simple rules.
		Given the difficulty of establishing whether a given number is algebraic or not, this was one of Cantor's early surprising results.

	Avogadro's Number
		The first actual estimate of the number of molecules in one cubic centimetre of a gas under standard conditions was made in 1865 by Loschmidt, and from this the number of molecules (atoms) in a gram molecule (atom) was later evaluated.
		This number is frequently referred to as "Avogadro's Number," the term "Loschmidt's Number" being then reserved for the number of molecules in a cubic centimetre of a gas under standard conditions.
		Avogadro's important hypothesis on the identity of the numbers of molecules in equal volumes of different gases at the same pressure and temperature was formulated in 1811, and is appropriately associated with his name; but Avogadro made no quantitative estimate of either of the above-mentioned constants.

	XML Path Language (XPath)
		NOTE: The number function should not be used for conversion of numeric data occurring in an element in an XML document unless the element is of a type that represents numeric data in a language-neutral format (which would typically be transformed into a language-specific format for presentation to a user).
		If the result is a number, the result will be converted to true if the number is equal to the context position and will be converted to false otherwise; if the result is not a number, then the result will be converted as if by a call to the boolean function.
		In addition, the number function cannot be used unless the language-neutral format used by the element is consistent with the XPath syntax for a Number.

	What is number?
		Number is a grammatical category of nouns, pronouns, and verb agreement that expresses count distinctions (such as "one" or "more than one").
		In the word girls, plural number is marked by the suffix -s.
		The count distinctions typically, but not always, correspond to the actual count of the referents of the marked noun or pronoun.

	PHP: number_format - Manual
		This is because the numbers generated by performing math are double precision (which means pretty darn accurate) and not perfect precision (which would be what you get when you do the math on paper).
		Since number_format() returns a string, numbers returned that DO NOT have a comma in them will still be added but numbers that DO have a comma will not be added because PHP considers them a string and ignores them.
		Please beware of negative numbers close to zero, as they might produce this unusable (and in my opinion incorrect/off-description) output.

		Geometrically, imaginary numbers are found on the vertical axis of the complex number plane, allowing them to be presented orthogonal to the real axis.
		One way of viewing imaginary numbers is to consider a standard number line, positively increasing in magnitude to the right, and negatively increasing in magnitude to the left.
		Imaginary numbers were defined in 1572 by Rafael Bombelli.
