发帖数: 2 | 1 Mathematics has got so many different branches. Yet I do not believe math is
formed by some branches totally irrevlant to each other. Yet I do not believe
each of them is of equal importance.It is absolutely not true. There is core
mathematics , mainstream mathematics
which reflects the highest achivement of our times. For instance math shown in
the proof of Fermat theorem. At least those important math branches are
still closedly
connected to each other, which form the main body of mathemati | h**********a
发帖数: 40 | 2 I agree with you. This kind of hatred happened many times in history
and it is happening now all over the academic fields, which stinks.
For example, Fisher and Pearson fought hard last century, finally it
looked like Fisher's maximum likelihood methods won over Pearson's
method of moments, but years later, GMM came out and it appeared as
good as, and sometimes better than MLE in many scenarios.
I'm just sick of all this BS: why ppl want to show they are good
by downgrading other's work? | H****h
发帖数: 1037 | 3 数学有狭义和广义之分。你强调的狭义，而大家对本版名称的理解是广义。
广义的数学现在一般被称为数学科学。
