I am able to sense things certain numbers in math, and am wondering if anyone finds this impossible.?

Question

I'm capable of dividing and doing quick addition, multiplication, square roots, and detect prime numbers without calculating anything. I sense a image like picture of the number out of what seems to be entagled static, which itself feels like nothing more than a poofy thing tat clouds my mind, and the number simply appears.
It's more of a feeling that each number has, and it's almost indescrible. My brain feels funny after doing anything relating to it.
It's not memorization, I wouldn't be asking this question if it was. Are there other people who are able to do this?

Answer 1

I have seen a special on autistic people that have abilities with numbers. This is very similar to what they describe. I have heard some even say numbers are their friends and they attach certain feelings to different numbers.

Answer 2

You are not qualified to analyze your own brain. Anyone who studies psychology should be well aware of this fact. Your own perceptions will bias you against impartial analysis. Regardless of what you perceive while calculating square roots, you are doing math in your head.

I would hazard a guess that the right half of your brain is dominant (which has a positive correlation with being left handed), as you seem to do math by intuition, rather than by explicit calculation, and you can't explain how you end up with the right answer.

Answer 3

I can sense the same thing, only with smaller numbers. I wouldn't be able to tell you if 2^104+3 was the number in question, but with numbers that do not exceed 3 digits, yes.

Answer 4

you may be a savant. i've seen this before with a guy named daniel tammit. these type of people are extremely rare and there are only approximately 25-30 people on earth with this condition.

Answer 5

Yes i think it is possible, i even saw someone on tv exactly the same as you, you should try searching that on youtube
