terryology 0.1.3

A Python package implementing Terry's unique mathematical system

Terryology

A Python package implementing Terry's unique mathematical system, where multiplication is defined as a × b = a + b copies of a.

Installation

Using uv:

uv pip install terryology

Using pip:

pip install terryology

Basic Usage

from terryology import multiply, power

# Terry multiplication
result = multiply(2, 3)  # Returns 8 (2 + 3*2)

# Terry power
result = power(2, 2)    # Returns 6 (2 + 2*2)

Extending Terry's Mathematics

The package exposes the use_terryology decorator, allowing you to create your own Terry-style mathematical operations:

from terryology import use_terryology

# Create a new operation using Terry multiplication
@use_terryology
def square(a, b):
    # In Terry's system, squaring is the same as multiply(x, x)
    return a * a

# Create more complex expressions
@use_terryology
def complex_operation(a, b):
    # This will use Terry's multiplication and power rules
    return math.pow(a * b, 2)

# You can also use it for your own mathematical insights
@use_terryology
def my_terry_formula(a, b):
    return a * b + math.pow(a, b)

How the Decorator Works

The use_terryology decorator transforms mathematical operations within a function to follow Terry's system:

• Regular multiplication (*) becomes a + (b * a)
• math.pow(a, b) is redefined according to Terry's multiplication rules
