Cantor algebra

Cantor algebra is like a math game where we only use two numbers - 0 and 1. We can combine these numbers using some special rules to make new numbers.

For example, if we add 0 and 0, we get 0. If we add 0 and 1, we get 1. If we add 1 and 1, we get 0 (but we also carry over a 1 to the next column).

We can also multiply numbers using these same rules. For example, if we multiply 0 and 0, we get 0. If we multiply 0 and 1, we get 0. If we multiply 1 and 1, we get 1.

In Cantor algebra, we can also do something called negation, which means flipping a number to its opposite. So if we negate 0, we get 1, and if we negate 1, we get 0.

We can use these rules to make all sorts of interesting numbers in Cantor algebra, and these numbers can be used to solve problems in computer science and engineering. It's a fun way to play with numbers using just two simple building blocks!
