Mathematics
Mathematics is the study of quantity, structure, space, and change. Mathematicians seek out patterns, and formulate new conjectures. Mathematicians resolve the truth or falsity of conjectures by mathematical proofs, which are arguments sufficient to convince other mathematicians of their validity.
Through the use of abstraction and logical reasoning, mathematics evolved from counting, calculation, measurement, and the systematic study of the shapes and motions of physical objects. Practical mathematics has been a human activity for as far back as written records exist.
A View
Mathematics is just like our culture, it did not emerge out suddenly but has been growing, expanding, changing and thus developing.For mathematicians this is their culture, this is what that defines their way of living. Mathematics in itself is a world full of rides to be driven on and mysteries to be explored and solved.There’s no specific past present and future of maths it’s just its evolution that I’m about to show.
