imatfaal Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Heaven only knows - it was twenty years ago I was there and I head to the islands most years so lots of place/names/people only poorly remembered. I would have a note of it somewhere if I could find my map - but very very unlikely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whocares386 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Without math we wouldn't have those technologies. So yes, it science and important one. Math is based on logical observation and solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druS Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Browsing my favourite Christmas gift - the Feynman Lectures - I remembered this thread. So. This is Richard Feynman, original lecture from, I think, 1961, "The relation of Physics to other sciences". Lack of space also prevents our discussing the relationship of physics to engineering, industry, society, and war, or even the most remarkable relationship between mathematics and physics. (Mathematics is not a science from our point of view, in the sense that it is not a natural science. The test of it's validity is not experiment.) We must, incidentally, make it clear from the beginning that if a thing is not a science, it is not necessarily bad. For example love is not a science. So if something is said not to be a science, it does not mean that there is something wrong with it; it just means that it is not a science. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
