Question

Math Is Fundamental To All Knowledge

Answer 1

Math is fundamental to all knowledge.

no math = no logic
no logic = no structure
no structure = chaos
chaos = confusion
confusion = lost
lost = limited
limited = no growth
no growth = no development
no development = primitive
primitive = ignorant
ignorant = no knowledge

therefore,
no math = no knowledge

Answer 2

Also, math is aesthetically pleasing. Geometry is the building block (no pun intended) for ancient Greek culture, for instance.

Answer 3

Would there be no logic without maths?

Answer 4

math didnt always exist and if no math=no development than we wouldnt be alive...

Answer 5

Without math, logic couldn't possibly exist because math is fundamental to logic. That's like asking if day could exist without night.

Answer 6

it depends on your definition of what maths is and what logic is.

Answer 7

Math has always existed even before mankind. Without math, the universe as we know it wouldn't exist.

Answer 8

I think maths may have formalized logic. But the human brain is naturally conditioned to act in some kind of logical way most of the time. Monkeys seem to know logic, but they don't seem to do maths particularly.

Answer 9

okay now youre getting religious which is just going to divert opinions

Answer 10

Okay, I won't go to the religious with it, but the word God has more than one meaning. It doesn't have to be interpreted religously.

Answer 11

@scarydoor That's correct. But on the other hand, abstraction, the building block of our perception of the world, was developed together with the Maths and Philosophy. So yeah, I agree with you, that depends on the definition of logic, indeed.

Answer 12

This will either get religious or get into all kinds of physics theorys and controversy over the definition of math. i hope thats what u wanted

Answer 13

No, I'm just going to stop while I'm ahead.

Answer 14

im afraid youre already behind

Answer 15

I only posted what I posted for moral humor. It was never to be taken seriously.

Answer 16

Maths is the only exact tool that we have. Even uncertainty and probability can be quantified.

Answer 17

Maths definitely lends 'exactness' to logic. It helps to 'quantify' data. But I believe it's logic that led to maths, not the other way around.

Because there is something that is 'zilch', we have 'zero'. Because there was something limitless, we have what we call 'infinity'. Because there was an 'instant', something that 'almost' equaled something but wasn't 'exactly' equal to it, we have 'calculus'.

Maths undoubtedly cannot be ignored, is undeniable, but logic is quintessential.
Maths without logic is like a body without soul. :)

Answer 18

According to what you said - YOu used math to prove that. You cannot prove the consistency of a system with the same system. Problem?

Answer 19

@Hero

Answer 20

@inkyvoyd, not sure. Look at metamathematics (the area of maths which uses maths to study maths) to see if it's a problem. Apparently it's possible in some instances, so maybe.

Answer 21

Platonistic nonsense.

^^Exactly.

Answer 30

'Logic will take you from A to B.
Imagination will take you everywhere'-Albert Einstein
I agree that mathematics is very essential, but certainly not everything. In fact, Michael Faraday never used Maths to study electromagnetism(he did that experimentally).
Maths is just a description of an artificial set of numbers. Physics is the description of what is around you.
In short, I want to say Physics > Maths

Answer 31

Math is also fundamental to Physics as well. Physics seems to be more intriguing, substantial, and fulfilling for mankind nevertheless.

Answer 32

\[\huge \mathfrak{\color{}{FEEL .is. Everything}}\]

Answer 33

atleast something.

Answer 34

Right, hero. One of the greatest achievements of Maths is Calculus, and it was developed mainly to describe physical phenomena(Newton was a major contributor). Calculus is the best thing about Maths, because it describes the real world, and so does co-ordinate geometry.
But otherwise, Maths just seems artificial and theoretical. For example, Maths predicts that an electric charge has a field around it that extends till infinity! But I don't that there is any force far away. Maths says it is too small. But there is no evidence that the 'too small' force exists!

Answer 35

@Mani_Jha define "best"

Answer 36

I still dislike math.

Answer 37

It's supposed to be a question:

"Is Math Is Fundamental To All Knowledge?"

Answer, no.

Answer 38

Lol..How to define that? What I wanted to say is that Calculus is the greatest achievement in Mathematics, because it has brought about the marriage of science and Maths!

Answer 39

I don't remember putting the is or the question mark, but okay.
