Gottfried Wrote:Regarding the "Height" - well, in fact it is better to say "iterate", but the letter "i" for its abbreviation would be *much* confusing. Our usual "t" is somehow anonym, and I used "t" from the beginning of my tetration-discussion as a very basic notation (also in my program-code), so what to do?
Perhaps we can agree on an external third person. Ecalle uses \( w \) for what I would call "iteration exponent" or "iteration count". So \( w \) would be mnemonic for "iteration width" haha.
