Sorry for the digression, but I have to start with the counting rules. In the case of bitwise addition of two non-negative integer numbers, as we move from digit to digit, there arise the signs of transfer to a high-order digit. Please note that no matter if we do it manually or by means of adders, one way or another, in both cases we have a consistent, time-developed dynamic process. In other words, in contrast to the way we usually write, without thinking about the consequences, in formulas, the simplest arithmetic operations (addition) and its inverse operation (subtraction) are not elementary!
Reasonable questions arise. What is the nature of such a trivial operation and how is it constructed?
Proceeding from the fundamental system principles, preference cannot be given to any digits, i.e., all digits must be equivalent. And from this naturally follows a transition to the addition (subtraction) not in one, as we were taught, but in all the digits at the same time, before all signs of the transfer disappear.
If you are ready to overcome the barriers erected since childhood, then everything that follows is quite simple. By limiting the depth of the transfer, we will obtain Incomplete Arithmetic confirmed by irrefutable facts and easily reproducible in tests. Incomplete Arithmetic with the transfer depth equal to 1 is trivial and was called Pre-Arithmetic (September 2006).
Pre-Arithmetic (Prearithmetic) is characterized by extremely small time and full parallelism of execution of operations for each of the digit and, besides, is accompanied by an unavoidable additional component that is called nduction in dynamic systems. Note that this component vanishes and is not observed in arithmetic!
Pre-Arithmetic has its other varieties, including those that complement each other – multidimensional, in particular, similar to mechanical vibrations and electromagnetic fields. Pre-Arithmetics naturally cover all the knowledge known to date, and with it, if you want, generate new Arithmetics, and then new physics and mathematics, Nonlinear Dynamics (Non-Linear Dynamics) and Cryptography.
Pre-Arithmetic and induction components are associated with dichotomic (Dichotomic Sequence) and other unique properties inherent in nature that we do not notice, ignore or ascribe to ph phenomena.
Following the remarkable mutual equivalence of nature and mathematics, it actually comes out that we know only little about Nature. Reality, and (as follows) physics and mathematics are more complex and subtly constructed, i.e., in a manner other than that we previously thought.
It seems that with the understanding that Arithmetic is not trivial and with the introduction of Pre-Arithmetics following from Arithmetic, there is much to rethink and much to consider in a different manner.

The Children's Society is a national children's charity (registered No. 221124)[1] driven by its vision of a country where children are free from disadvantage.
Its mission is to fight for change, supporting disadvantaged children to have better lives. The charity's two governing objectives are to:[2]
create a positive shift in social attitudes to improve the situation facing all children and young people.
In 2017, The Children’s Society launched a new strategy aimed at disrupting the cycles of disadvantage that prevent young people from thriving by 2030; an ambition that directly supports the vision and mission. The charity has chosen to concentrate on young people aged 10–18 with many problems in their lives (or multiple disadvantage). The strategy focuses on using innovation to scale up impact through technology and learning, partnerships to leverage resource, and continuous improvement by becoming an agile and efficient organisation.
As well as supporting change at an individual level through its direct programmes of work, The Children's Society aims to effect systemic change by influencing legislation and government practice, and to effect a positive shift in public attitudes towards children and young people.
The Children's Society's strategy explores the complex challenges in young people's lives by focusing on three areas: risk, resilience and resources.
Risk: The threats and dangers to a young person's safety which could include neglect and abuse, exploitation and violence.
Resilience: A young person's capacity to respond to adversity at any given time which could include mental health or trauma.
Resources: The resources available to meet a young person's needs which could include family support, money or social support.
The Children's Society was founded in the late nineteenth century by Edward Rudolf, a Sunday School teacher and civil servant in South London. Rudolf led a deputation to Archibald Tait, Archbishop of Canterbury to put forward a plan for the establishment of Church of England children's homes as an alternative to the large workhouses and orphanages common at that time. In 1881, a new organisation was registered as the Church of England Central Society for Providing Homes for Waifs and Strays. It kept this name until 1946, when the title was changed to the Church of England Children's Society; and since the 1980s it has been known as The Children's Society.
The first home was opened in Dulwich in 1882. Its success, together with a growing awareness of the scale of child poverty in England and Wales, led to the rapid development of The Children's Society. By 1919 the charity had 113 homes and cared for 5,000 children.
A main feature of The Children's Society's work was its insistence that children should not become long-term residents in homes, but boarded out, fostered or adopted. By the late 1960s The Children's Society had become one of the largest adoption agencies in the country.
In the late 1960s and the early 1970s, in response to the significant social changes of these years, The Children's Society moved away from centralised care, fostering and adoption work and focused more on preventative work designed to support children and young people within their own families and communities. During the 1970s and 1980s The Children's Society introduced family centres throughout the country offering services such as advice centres, play groups, youth clubs and short term accommodation for young, single mothers.
During the 1990s The Children's Society began focusing on social justice, lobbying to change legislation and welfare provision, and encouraging young people to speak and act for themselves.
The charity's direct practice now focuses on vulnerable children and young people aged 10 to 18 - including children who have been sexually exploited, children in care and young refugees. Its policy and campaigning work is informed by its direct practice, and by its extensive research on children's well-being, child poverty and adolescent neglect.
The Children's Society was rebranded in 2014 by London-based design practice SomeOne from a logo depicting a purple figure reaching for a star to the current black and white identity. The new look reflects the charity's belief of confronting 'hard truths'.
The charity's income in 2016-17 was £41.6m.[3] This was largely voluntary income donated by supporters (£20.6m). A further £7m was generated by the provision of children's services and £9.9m from charity shops. Investments and other income contributed an additional £4m.
The Children's Society is best known for its ground-breaking children's well-being research, the most extensive national programme of research on children’s subjective well-being in the world. As the national expert on children's well-being, it provides the latest and most accurate national picture on how children feel about their lives by asking children themselves. Over the last 12 years the charity has asked over 60,000 children how they think their lives are going.
In 2006 the charity commissioned an independent inquiry into modern childhood called The Good Childhood Inquiry.[4] The rationale behind the Inquiry was that despite the 2003 Every Child Matters programme, unacceptable levels of disadvantage, poverty and social exclusion remained. Children's experience of childhood was changing rapidly, due to technological, demographic and cultural developments. It was felt that an inquiry into childhood would help The Children's Society and others understand how to respond to these issues in a way that supported children and young people.
The Inquiry's report, A Good Childhood: Searching for Values in a Competitive Age,[5] was published in 2009 and received considerable media coverage, including from the BBC.[6] It found that 'excessive individualism' is causing a range of problems for children today, including family break-up, teenage unkindness, unprincipled advertising, too much competition in education and acceptance of income inequality.
The charity went on to develop the Good Childhood Index[7] in 2010 to provide an index of subjective well-being in relation to 10 aspects of life for children over the age of eight. It asks children how they feel about topics like their appearance, school life and family relationships among others.
Each year The Children's Society produces a report based on the index in partnership with the University of York called The Good Childhood Report. The report brings together the most up-to-date and best available data on children's well-being and provides ground-breaking insights that can inform parents, schools, youth professionals and policy-makers.
This data is used by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) Measuring National Well-being Programme as the life satisfaction measure of personal well-being for children.[8]
The 2016 Good Childhood Report showed a growing gap in happiness between girls and boys, with girls being particularly unhappy with their appearance.[9] The Good Childhood Report 2017, the sixth in-depth study, found that fear of crime is the biggest worry for children and young people, which was widely reported by the media.[10][11]
The Children's Society uses its practical experience to fight nationally and locally for changes to laws and policy that affect children. For example, its work with young people on the streets culminated in a study in 1999,[12] which called for a nationwide network of safe houses to be set up, and for statutory money to pay for them. This work also fed into a campaign to decriminalise prostitution for under-18s. The charity argued that child prostitution should be seen as a child protection issue, and that police and other agencies should protect children and young people from exploitation. In 1995, The Children's Society published the first report to highlight child prostitution in this way and the Association of Chief Police Officers and the Association of Directors of Social Services responded by making a public commitment to review the way they dealt with these children. The Children's Society continued to highlight the issue in 1997 by holding Britain's first conference on the subject, and publishing a detailed report.[13] Government guidelines followed in 2000, recommending that the police should treat the children as victims of abuse rather than as perpetrators of crime.
The Seriously Awkward campaign reveals that because of their age, the most vulnerable 16 and 17 year olds are falling through the cracks of childhood and adulthood. They are being let down by the law and not getting the same basic protections as younger children. Life is hard for any child at this awkward age, but for the most vulnerable dealing with complex issues like domestic violence, mental health problems or poverty on top of everything else, life is seriously awkward. The charity is urging the Government to give vulnerable 16 and 17 year olds more help with health, employment and housing as they leave childhood behind and begin adult life[14].
The Children's Society's report Wolf at the door revealed that council tax debt can be a particularly frightening experience for care leavers. What can start out for many care leavers as falling slightly behind can very quickly escalate to a court summons and enforcement action being taken. The campaign asks councils to make care leavers exempt from paying council tax until they turn 25; giving these young people time to learn how to manage their finances and have a better chance at avoiding problem debt in the future. The Scottish Government[15] and more than 80 councils in England and Wales[16] have agreed to the exemption so far. In 2017 The Children and Young People Now Awards[17] awarded the charity the Leaving Care Award for this campaign.
Together with more than 150 other organisations, The Children's Society is calling for the eradication of child poverty in the UK. 19 November 2013, with relevant childhood experience, Misha B helped launch the charity's new Manchester initiative and raised awareness of more than 150,000 children living in poverty in Greater Manchester area.[18][19][20]
The Children's Society joined forces with Bail for Immigration Detainees (BID) to campaign for an end to the immigration detention of children. In December 2010, the government set out a timetable to end the practice of detaining children in immigration centres.
Gathering childhood memories from members of the public to build up a picture of childhood over the years, to see what can be learnt from past experiences so that today's children can benefit from them.
Calling on the Government and local authorities to ensure that young runaways and children at risk on the streets receive the assistance and support they need.
Campaigning for children (minors) involved in commercial sex to be treated as victims of abuse rather than as criminals (prostitutes).
The Children's Society's annual Christingle appeal invites supporters to hold a candlelit celebration, during which participants receive a Christingle. This is made of an orange, a lighted candle, a red ribbon and sweets on cocktail sticks, each part acting as a symbol of the Christian faith.
