    Extractions: Every culture on earth has developed some mathematics. In some cases, this mathematics has spread from one culture to another. Now there is one predominant international mathematics, and this mathematics has quite a history. It has roots in ancient Egypt and Babylonia, then grew rapidly in ancient Greece. Mathematics written in ancient Greek was translated into Arabic. About the same time some mathematics of India was translated into Arabic. Later some of this mathematics was translated into Latin and became the mathematics of Western Europe. Over a period of several hundred years, it became the mathematics of the world. There are other places in the world that developed significant mathematics, such as China, southern India, and Japan, and they are interesting to study, but the mathematics of the other regions have not had much influence on current international mathematics. There is, of course, much mathematics being done these and other regions, but it is not the traditional math of the regions, but international mathematics. By far, the most significant development in mathematics was giving it firm logical foundations. This took place in ancient Greece in the centuries preceding Euclid. See

    Extractions: Note the new URL: http://www.math.toronto.edu/007/007-news.html The good Christian should beware of mathematicians and all those who make empty prophecies. The danger already exists that mathematicians have made a covenant with the devil to darken the spirit and confine man to the bonds of Hell St. Augustine This special edition of MAT 007 I News is a selected compilation of articles that have been written over the past eight years. I'd tell you what the mission of our newsletter is, but instead, I have appropriately placed one of the Editor's Notes of Steve Sculac, the founder of 007 News , below. It's quite self-explanatory. The idea of having 007 News online was an idea proposed by Andrew Irwin in 1992, during my first year as editor. Now with the World Wide Web, it has now been made possible and we couldn't be more pleased with the results.

    mathematics in China. Table of Contents. A brief outline of the history of Chinese mathematics. Primary sources are Mikami s The Development  
    http://aleph0.clarku.edu/~djoyce/mathhist/china.html
    
    Extractions: Mathematics in China Primary sources are Mikami's The Development of Mathematics in China and Japan and Li Yan and Du Shiran's Chinese Mathematics, a Concise History . See the bibliography below. Numerical notation, arithmetical computations, counting rods Traditional decimal notation one symbol for each of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 100, 1000, and 10000. Ex. 2034 would be written with symbols for 2,1000,3,10,4, meaning 2 times 1000 plus 3 times 10 plus 4. Goes back to origins of Chinese writing. Calculations performed using small bamboo counting rods. The positions of the rods gave a decimal place-value system, also written for long-term records. digit was a space. Arranged left to right like Arabic numerals. Back to 400 B.C.E. or earlier. Addition: the counting rods for the two numbers placed down, one number above the other. The digits added (merged) left to right with carries where needed. Subtraction similar.

29. Constructive Mathematics
    Constructive mathematics is distinguished from its traditional counterpart, classical mathematics, by the strict interpretation of the phrase `there exists' as `we can construct'. In order to work constructively, we need to reinterpret not only the existential quantifier but all the logical connectives and quantifiers as instructions on how to construct a proof of the statement involving these logical expressions. From the Stanford Encyclopedia.  
    http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/mathematics-constructive/
    
    Extractions: JUN Before mathematicians assert something (other than an axiom) they are supposed to have proved it true. What, then, do mathematicians mean when they assert a disjunction P Q , where P and Q P Q hold, but also we can decide which one holds. Thus just as mathematicians will assert that P only when they have decided that P by proving it, they may assert P Q P or decide (prove) that Q With this interpretation, however, mathematicians run into a serious problem in the special case where Q P , of P P is to show that P implies a contradiction (such as 0=1). But it will often be that mathematicians have neither decided that P P . To see this, we need only reflect on the following:
