- nicky0 5y agoMath is both a philosophical enquiry (pure math) and a tool (applied math & statistics). Physics as a science uses math as a modelling and analysis tool.
- disgruntledphd2 5y agoI've always parsed mathematics more as a language than a science, because it's not necessarily empirical.
- nicky0 5y agoPerhaps as a language combined with rules to operate upon that language, transforming true statements into other true statements.
