Number: Triangular Numbers:
(N² - N) is always a triangular number, as for instance, the number of balls in the rack on a pool table. A telephone connection is a circuit, a circuit is a circle; two people need one circuit; three people need three circles; these make a triangle. Four people need four circuits. Successive stackings of the number of relationships of our experiences are a stacking of triangles where the sum-total of balls in the successive rows will always be (R + 1)² - (R + 1).
