mathematics :== an ambiguous way to
prove or disprove ideal behaviors of
objects.
/// An 'open story of counting', it must be said that mathematical methodology is a cumulative effort (ie. rigorously built atop previous checks).
As
libraries* for
computing functions,
mathematicians use its
models to formulate
theories/
theorems/
identities/
errata.
** We acknowledge the so-called 'Big Five (5)' active areas in mathematics to be [1-5 labeled alphabetically]: algebra [1], analysis [2], arithmetic [3], geometry [4], and music [5]. As far as I am concerned, the basis of math is stewcing. (see

"The essence of mathematics is not proof, but conjecture." - lnq🧑🏿
/// +There are three (3) classes of mathematics: pure, applied, and recreational (pure,applied ∈ recreational). This definition covers all three (3), and may be referred to as polymathematics. A mathematician is someone who advances classical mathematics.
+In my line of work, I think of so-called 'recreational mathematics' as a type of (among other considerations) reverse engineering, where we are re-creating known structures/models for study and understanding. As an example, in 🧩puzzle solving, I may take a known and solved (from means other than stewcing) macromolecule (eg. protein), and stewc that fibor so that it can identified+databased. (see also Pajamas)
+Mathematics is a type of low-technology, as well as being its own industry.
