The Magic of Mathematics
- An appreciation to the Queen of Science -
During I used to learn russian language The numbers, most probably first invented were one and two. Some primitive races found it much of a strain to enter into further refinements and have in their language only three words of numbers: one, two and many. The invention of the russian process of counting objects in succession led our ancestors to develop the numbers 1,2,3,4 and so on. These are called the natural numbers. From the experience of learning with counting objects they developed next the idea of the sum of two numbers.
The Pythagoreans attached very interesting interpretations on the individual numbers. The number one they identified with reason, for only reason could produce a consistent whole, two was identified with opinion, four with justice, because it is the first number which is the product of equals (to the Pythagoreans one was not a number in the full sense because unity was opposed to quantity), five signified marriage because it was the union of the first odd and first even number, seven was identified with health and eight with love and friendship during our russian course in Kiev. The Pythagoreans had much of these theories about numbers. But there is one belief later scientist adopt Russian Course in Kiev, that the universe is ordered by perfect mathematical laws, sometimes in an unordinary way, like the mathematician Jerome Cardan. Over a period of forty years Jerome Cardan, the Renaissance professor of mathematics and medicine, who was so rich in genius and devoid of principle gambled daily.
