The first part defines mathematics as "Of or pertaining to mathematics".
Its like someone saying "Jymosobz is of or pertaining to Jymosobz", "According to Jymosobz". Would you know what Jymosobz is?

Ok, Mathematical has something to do with precision and accuracy, but what is Mathematical? Or are you saying Mathematical is precision and accuracy? Received on Mon May 05 2003 - 12:22:49 CDT
