Keeping pace with the times puts forward requirements for all aspects of our lives. As small as the ideas, knowledge and skills of each of us; The development and planning of a government and a country should keep pace with the times, so as to conform to the trend of the times and stand out in the increasingly fierce competition. Then our education is related to the rise and fall of the next generation and a nation, and should keep pace with the times. Education is constantly reformed according to the requirements of the times, such as quality education that we have long advocated, aesthetic education that we are reforming, and of course, some specific ones, such as the names of some courses and disciplines. What do you say today? Math? Was replaced? Algebra? The name is a more comprehensive and scientific embodiment.

When I was in middle school, our homework list said math class, but when I was in class, math class was actually divided into two stages. That is algebra and geometry. These two contents are both learned in math classes and assessed in math exams. So how to look at it simply from here, it is not difficult for us to understand that mathematics covers a wider range of contents, and its connotation and extension are also wider. Algebra is only a part of mathematics. When we study the history of mathematics, we will know that before 1940s, mathematics was the coexistence of three disciplines, namely algebra, geometry and trigonometry. After 1950, the Ministry of Education incorporated it into mathematics as needed.

However, the mathematics subjects offered in our school now are algebra and geometry. So what is algebra? Compared with geometry, algebra is more abstract. We use algebra to study the relationship between numbers, as well as the theory and method of operation. We know that numbers are divided into real numbers and complex numbers, and polynomials derived from them, and the relationship between numbers. Geometry is different from algebra. Geometry is more intuitive, that is, to study the internal relationship between graphics and graphics. But algebra and geometry are different, but they cannot be separated. The study of geometry should be expressed by algebraic relations, which sometimes need to be reflected intuitively by geometric figures.

The previous course was called. Algebra? That's a relatively incomplete name, and now it's changed? Math? Making the content of this subject more comprehensive and rich is the performance of keeping pace with the times.
