Mathematical Notation
Symbol system for expressing mathematical concepts and operations.
Symbol system for expressing mathematical concepts and operations. Composed of Latin, Greek, and specialized symbols, its modern foundation was laid during the Renaissance (16th–17th century). Viète, Descartes, Leibniz, and Newton established modern mathematical notation. Mathematical symbols are the only truly universal notation system transcending all language barriers — the "language of science" shared by scientists worldwide.
