What is Time ~ TnkTheories

     Hello Steem Community, I am Tsinik and I would like to post my theories in here with the hope that some people will read them and start a conversation in the comments where we discuss different opinions and theories on some scientific stuff. Since this is a theory from an amateur like me, it probably will hold almost zero ground. In spite that I wish you find my thoughts as fascinating as I do.

     The first subject I would like to voice, which is the one a lot of the other theories will be based on, is the explanation of time. What exactly is time, how do we view it and would this knowledge affect the way we view the world. Just a friendly warning, since I studied Computer Science in the university I will be using coding to explain some of the thought process. Do not be alarmed as you do not need to have any previews knowledge of programming to understand what I will be talking about. Everything will be explained quite clearly, only thing you need is a brain willing to do a bit of work.

     Before we head into the explanation of time let's get see the very basics of coding. In coding you initialize objects. Objects can be anything you want. For example if you are using numbers, numbers are objects of their own. The very primitive way to initialize the objects you want would be:

Integer myNumber = new Integer(42);

Now we have stored in our memory an Integer object named "myNumber" with the value 42. Then we might want a few numbers to be stored and not just one. That's where we create an array ( stay with me please, this is actually relevant).

Integer[] myArray= new Integer[3];



myArray[0]=myNumber0;



myArray[1]=myNumber1;



myArray[2]=myNumber2;

We created an array called "myArray" with a size of 3 and saved our numbers in it. This is an one dimensional array. Next we try to use this information in the real world. Lets say we create objects named "atoms". Now if we had a space with only one dimension it would be an array with a lot of atoms. Then we create an array containing different arrays of atoms thus creating a 2 dimensional space. That is where you create shapes like a circle or a square.

     If you take a single layer of the universe that has no depth, that layer would contain a 2 dimensional array of this objects we named atoms. ( just using them as reference point, since it is one of the smallest material we can see, technically an atom has depth so the example wouldn't work but once again, stick with me here). Then if you take multiple layers you create a 3 dimensional shape. So in coding words, you create an array of those 2D arrays.

     Now if we look at the whole universe then we can realize that at any given moment the universe is a 3D array of these objects. So what exactly is time. Once we understand the previews statements we can see that time is the different states of that 3D object. 

atoms[][][] Universe = new atoms[][][];



while(true){



     for(each atom in Universe){



          current_atom=new atom(actions_taken);



     }



     update(Universe);



}

By what actions everything makes, each atom in this 3D array gets changed. Once all atoms take a new value ( even if that new value is the same, i.e. something didn't move) the state of the Universe gets updated. So this is what time is. It's simply the different states of the 3D shape we call universe. And since the states get updated way too fast we have named a certain amount of them as "second", to be able to calculate them.

     Yes this had a big build up for such a small explanation. That is because it really is probably something that simple. If you don't understand something please do ask in the comments. I want to keep posting my theories so here is a list of what I have building up:

• Time Travel in a linear time.
• Time Travel in a circular time.
• Aliens
• After Life as a Dream
• Meaning of Life
• Religion Explanation ( yes I know, there will be flames but people need to read this, but later)
• Creator Existence (same)

Also if you have subjects you would like to see theories of, please do tell me and I will do my best!

Please do comment so we can start a conversation and if you would be so kind show your friends this thread since I would like to have the chance to create a theory community, where all of us collect new information and advance our theories about the world!

Thank you, and I hope you enjoyed the read.
