I took many Math courses at University and I have spent a long time in CS. I don't think my opinion about Math is somehow "out there".
Physics wouldn't be possible without Math BUT Physics is not called Math. Computer Science is. Take a look at a few of the posts including the one from Ben and you will see what I mean. Just explain to me why CS should be treated with less respect than Physics? Why is CS Math but Physics is not? Simple question.

When I call something mathematical, I mean it can be expressed mathematically, or it is amenable to mathematical analysis. I think a lot of people use the term this way. I'm a bit surprised to find that other people use it differently, to mean that it is literally part of math and/or is expressed in mathematical notation. This difference in usage could potentially explain a lot of disagreement and misunderstanding on this list, not just in this particular conversation. ------------------------------------------- AGI Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/21088071-f452e424 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21088071&id_secret=21088071-58d57657 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
