Well, I've been thinking.

An addition is a series of multiplications, an exponential is a series of multiplications, whatever is a series of... well you get the point.

Now, with the way we do it now, we would need an infinite amount of symbols for this... so I was thinking I'd just represent it like this:

4:1;5 = 4 + 5
4:2;5 = 4*5

etc. (addition should be 0, maybe?)

ANYWAYS, that's not my point. My point is, if we have X as a level:

4:x;5 = 20

How do we solve x?? (it's obviously "multiply" there, but you know)

What if X is a real number? (non-whole) what if it's negative? imaginary? *pensive*
