Speaking of spheres, aren't numbers interesting too. Why a cap from 0-9?

You mean like 10 .. like 10 fingers? But that's only base-10 aka the decimal system, you know that there are other numbering systems, right?
Base-8 for example would be 0-7 and you'd count 0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-10-11-12-13-14-15-16-17-20
And there are of course systems with more than 10, for example base-16 or hexadecimals where you have to add the letters A-F to counting after going through 0-9

Is universe flat though?

I thought it was bubbalisious?

Recovering and getting better everyday now! I wish I could spend more time here with my friends <3

During all this process, I've been playing a lot with my Switch... How about you?

Show me a number system in the world where 9 isn't the limit. I mean in terms of symbols. Even base 16... The numbers are replaced by letters. I mean is the a number higher than 10 that is written in numerical for and has it's own symbol that isn't a letter or something frawn from elswhere than numerology.

Thats because it's arabic numerals you are referring to, they are also just symbols just like letters. Just look at how romans counted with only 7 symbols and they only used what you'd call letters.
There are a lot more ways to count and just because we commonly only use 0-9 (+ maybe some letters) doesn't mean there arent

You're talking about digits.

And I'm pretty sure the answer is that in the modern world we mostly use Arabic numerals, because our math and sciences are built on the groundwork of European and Arab scientists. Who in turn used Arabic numerals because they're really really convenient for doing math with in base 10. Which is the most common everyday system because it's very intuitive when you have 10 fingers.

And when it did become relevant to do math in other systems like hexadecimal, it was easier to use alphabet characters to make up the extras than to create entirely new characters.

There are other numeral systems- e.g. Roman numerals where you have less symbols and represent larger values with positioning- but you're just not likely to run across any of them in regular use.

I don't have 10 fingers, I only have 8 fingers and 2 thumbs, but I do have 10 toes.

As far as I'm concerned all thumbs are fingers but not all fingers are thumbs.

Unless @Evil Surgeon has been at it again...

I have never heard of opposable fingers, but I do have opposable thumbs.

I don't

No need to worry, because you only need one finger to type and you can use the same finger to collect the daily interest from the bank.

He uhh, didn't snitch...

Ah - quit raining on my fun!
