But the mathematical definition is | The main definition (with q-odd limit) only says "difference"; the definition in terms of a chord says "interval between"; I guess these make sense because some sums would stray outside the limit or the chord. But the mathematical definition is in terms of a set, and uses a sum (the first example also uses a sum, but the example is clearly valid and could be re-ordered into a difference). Is it correct to exclude sums? | ||
