Turntable is a word that means a rotating disk on some object (such as a record player). A disk-shaped device that is convenient for locomotives or other vehicles running on tracks to turn around. When the vehicle runs on the disc, the disc is rotated by machine or manpower to make the vehicle face the direction to go. Mathematics is a universal means for human beings to strictly describe and deduce abstract structures and patterns of things.
It can be applied to any problem in the real world, and all mathematical objects are artificially defined in essence. In this sense, mathematics belongs to formal science, not natural science. Different mathematicians and philosophers have a series of views on the exact scope and definition of mathematics. Mathematics plays an irreplaceable role in the development of human history and social life.
At the same time, it is also an indispensable basic tool for studying and studying modern science and technology. Mathematics originated from the early production activities of human beings, and the ancient Babylonians had accumulated some mathematical knowledge, which could be applied to practical problems. Judging from mathematics itself, their mathematical knowledge is only obtained through observation and experience, and there is no comprehensive conclusion and proof.
But we should also fully affirm their contribution to mathematics. The knowledge and application of basic mathematics is an indispensable part of individual and group life.
The refinement of its basic concepts can be found in ancient mathematical documents of ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia and ancient India. Since then, its development has continued to make small progress. But algebra and geometry at that time were still independent for a long time.
