Question

what is meta math?

Answer 1

google

Answer 2

lol, google cant do discussion

Answer 3

oh

Answer 4

Do you love to do maths ?

Answer 5

is that how u define meta maths, n of course i love maths

Answer 6

@TuringTest heyyy helppp

Answer 7

"meta-mathematics" would be "mathematics about mathematics."

For example

Studying about originations like

Where did 0 number orignate from

Where did \[\sqrt{}\] come from ?

Answer 8

well, thats philosophy of mathematics thats not meta math n m positive bout that

Answer 9

Even it can be based on theorems,dear future architect :)

Answer 10

oh thank you :) but studying origin and development is philosophy of mathematics its not meta maths and meta maths if development of algorithm i guess

Answer 11

and its basically a computer language @hba btw message me

Answer 12

@Hero can u? :)

Answer 13

@amistre64 help me

Answer 14

Sure i'll message you mam.Meta maths is not a computer language though.

Answer 15

lol its not a computer language its a language used to write mathematical algorithm like i guess you've heard of MATLAB

Answer 16

Oh yeah,I am not so sure about it though.

Answer 17

its ok (: m just curious to know

Answer 18

@amistre64 Please pour some knowledge in our empty glasses.

Answer 19

meta math was a user defined group that the admins decided to keep when they cleaned up the user created groups

Answer 20

lol super complex @amistre64 didn't get u :C

Answer 21

@amistre64 Your feedback did not provide what meta maths is ?

Answer 22

the admins tried the idea that users could create their own groups. Users abused the priviledge and the admins took that functionality away. They eventually went thru and deleted most of the user defined groups; but kept a few that had not been problematic

Answer 23

mate math is one of the subgroups in mathematics as a result of there being nowhere else to put it, and not wanting to get rid of it

Answer 24

what i got to know from wikipedia is as follows m not talking about this group here:-
Metamath is a language for developing strictly formalized mathematical definitions and proofs[1] accompanied by a proof checker for this language and a growing[2] database of thousands of proved theorems covering conventional results in logic, set theory, number theory, group theory, algebra, analysis, and topology, as well as topics in Hilbert spaces and quantum logic.

Answer 25

I have the honor of having named the group, so it means what I wanted it to mean ;)

meta=above
math=math

it's basically for irregular advanced problems that would liley get lost in time if they were in a section as large as the general math group

Answer 26

likely*

Answer 27

by posting questions that require days to solve in a smaller group they are more likely to get regular attention from some of our better users. I didn't look up the meaning on Wikipedia when I made the name, I just wanted to describe that the group was outside of any particular branch of mathematics.

Answer 28

@TuringTest then if i have question that deals with the definition of some mathematical term can i put it there for debate?

Answer 29

I guess, but I don't think it's the best place for it, as the group is much more slow-paced. You should probably just post that in regular math imo.

Answer 30

hmm thanks (:
