Nominal numbers are numbers used for identification only. They do not indicate quantity, rank, or any other measurement. The properties of nominal numbers are the minimum required to refer to an entity as a number. The term "nominal number" is quite recent, and appears to have originated as a usage in school textbooks derived from the statistical term "nominal data", defined as data indicating "...merely statements of qualitative category of membership." Mathematicians would typically describe this concept simply as a mapping between objects, or sets of objects, to the ordinal numbers.

(positive number) x (positive number) = positive number (positive number)/(positive number) = positive number (positive number) x ( negative number) = negative number (positive number)/( negative number) = negative number (negative number) x (negative number) = positive number (negative number)/(negative number) = positive number
