ABC of Mathematics

Introduction to ABC of maths:

Mathematics plays a very important role in humans life. Mathematical thinking is very important for everyone. In every work of a human we need mathematics.


Humans use the mathematics in doing any work. For example consider:
Arithmetic:  in counting and sorting,
Geometry: in spacing and distancing,
Statics: in balancing and weighting,
Probability: in guessing and judging


ABC OF MATHS means the fundamentals and basics of mathematics.

Brief explanation of ABC of maths:


NUMBER:
Number in mathematics is just a word or a symbol which is used for counting and also to say where something comes in a series.
Generally numbers are used for counting and calculating.


There are different kinds of numbers which includes: natural numbers, integers or whole numbers, cardinal numbers, ordinal numbers, rational numbers, real numbers, complex numbers etc.

NATURAL NUMBERS:
Natural numbers start from the 1, 2………infinity. They form the endless chain.

INTEGERS:
Integers also form the endless chain and it includes negatives and zero also.
…….……..-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3……………..

Integers are also known as whole numbers.


CARDINAL NUMBERS:
Cardinal number shows how many there are. They are used for counting.


ORDINAL NUMBERS:
Ordinal numbers tells about the order of the object being counted. Places in a sequence are shown by ordinal numbers.


RATIONAL NUMBERS:
Rational numbers are the numbers which does not includes like an square root of 2. It includes the integers and fractions.


REAL NUMBERS:
Real numbers are the numbers which also includes the numbers like square root of 2.


COMPLEX NUMBERS:
Complex numbers includes the imaginary numbers also like square root of -1.


There are also some special numbers included in ABC of mathematics. They include zero and Arabic number system. Zero is the number which was discovered by Indian and it is a great discovery without zero there is no value or reason of mathematics.
There are different kinds of scales which are used to classify and quantify and also to measure things. The different types of scales includes Binary scale, Nominal scale, Ordinal scale, Interval scale, Ratio scale
We also use roman numbers. FORMULA in mathematics is nothing but a rule.
