PAT TERNSI N NATURE

What is
Mathematics?
Mathematics, the science of structure, order, and relation that has
evolved from elemental practices of counting, measuring. and
describing the shapes of objects. It deals with logical reasoning and
quantitative calculation, and its development has involved an
increasing degree of idealization and abstraction of its subject matter.
Since the 17th century, mathematics has been an indispensable adjunct
to the physical sciences and technology, and in more recent times it has
assumed a similar role in the quantitative aspects of the life sciences.
