Ahah, a dodgy proof that two wrongs don't make a right:
w+w=2w
so if w+w did make 1r then:
2w=1r
so
0w=0r
But 0 wrongs doesn't mean 0 rights so w+w =/= rHow would you get 0w=0r from 2w=1r?
And 0 + 0 = 0 so it would actually be equal to whatever it is if that equation was rightRead the blue, it's not supposed to make sense.
I just don't like seeing wrong math

Re: Do two wrongs make a right?
0w=1r
1w=0r
2w=-1r
3w=-2r
4w=-3r
5w=-4r
And so on.

Re: Do two wrongs make a right?
3 lefts may make a right, but two positives don't make a negative, two whites don't make a black, and two ones don't make a negative one.
Interestingly, if you store true as 1 and false as 0 in a Boolean then two trues make a false, but not vice-versa.

What if you store 1 as wrong and 0 as right?
