The World of Mathematical Form Takes Shape
In some weird way we can all thank mother nature for math. Yes it would have came along some other point in time but it all stems from the Nile River in Egypt flood every year and wiping away property line and boundry markers. In soon time the Egyptions learned to estimate the land by dividing them into squares triangles and rectangles thus inventing geometry. The earliest form of math.
"Geometry introduced the idea of ideal forms existing outside the physical world. it opened vistas onto forms and ratios so beautufil they seemed to offer a look into the mind of God."
