You start counting with 1 because 0 is the term created later to indicate an absence of stuff to count. If I have one kid, I start counting by the number one, if I have 0 kids I don't have anything to count. But then I agree that there is no inherent logic, math is invented and not discovered, and you could define it any way you want. If we all had 8 fingers we would probably use base 8 instead of 10 after all. |
