[Fis] Fis Digest, Vol 113, Issue 8

Very well Krassimir, thank you.

Just a little remark:

The tautometric concept of information is
1. Not two permutations combined but permutations combined with partitions;
2. Show me any of the many competing definitions of information that is
based (rooted) in natural numbers;
3. Of course one can interpret patterns of natural numbers in many ways :
the patterns of natural numbers are the factual reality, and the verbal
notes different people assign to the same pattern are a multitude that
comes from the people being different, not from the fact that the natural
numbers are such as they are.

Other people have also beautiful daughters and defitions, but this here
tautometric daughter is not only as beautiful as all the others, but she
has the advantage of being a direct descendant of the Mother of All
Tautologies, her most exalted majesty of a+b=c, and this is a pedigree that
is unique to her.

I am extremely relaxed with regard to the competition in the business of
giving a good definition of information. Like Mendel knew that he says
something never heard before and that what he says is true and there is no
way anyone could say anything that would be truer.

I need to have your entry in a table

Kate,  240615, cycles no, their lengths (#1, #2,...)

in order to be able to name the properties that are to be watched.
