2. Mathematical notation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_notation

   Mathematical notation is widely used in mathematics, science, and engineering for representing complex concepts and properties in a concise, unambiguous, and accurate way. For example, the physicist Albert Einstein 's formula E = m c 2 {\displaystyle E=mc^{2}} is the quantitative representation in mathematical notation of mass–energy ...

3. Glossary of mathematical symbols - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_mathematical...

   A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various types, many symbols are needed for ...

In mathematics and computer science, [1] computer algebra, also called symbolic computation or algebraic computation, is a scientific area that refers to the study and development of algorithms and software for manipulating mathematical expressions and other ...

5. History of mathematical notation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_mathematical...

   The history of mathematical notation [1] covers the introduction, development, and cultural diffusion of mathematical symbols and the conflicts between notational methods that arise during a notation's move to popularity or obsolescence. Mathematical notation [2] comprises the symbols used to write mathematical equations and formulas.

6. Representation (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representation_(mathematics)

   In mathematics, a representation is a very general relationship that expresses similarities (or equivalences) between mathematical objects or structures.Roughly speaking, a collection Y of mathematical objects may be said to represent another collection X of objects, provided that the properties and relationships existing among the representing objects y i conform, in some consistent way, to ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_letters_used_in...

   Greek letters are used in mathematics, science, engineering, and other areas where mathematical notation is used as symbols for constants, special functions, and also conventionally for variables representing certain quantities. In these contexts, the capital letters and the small letters represent distinct and unrelated entities.

9. Equality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equality_(mathematics)

   Equality and equations are often used to introduce new terms or symbols, establish equivalences, and introduce shorthand for complex expressions. When defining a new symbol, it is often denoted with (:=). [22] It is similar to the concept of assignment of a variable in computer science.
