A mathematical proof does relate to our ordinary dictionary meaning of “truth”‚ but it has many more elements to it. The main idea behind the proof is the idea of logic. Math is a science and there is nothing fictional in the logic used to solve problems. Proofs are a way of using that logic to create a path through the maze often presented by mathematical concepts. Because math is so concrete and isn’t influenced by outside factors we can rely on some basic rules and concepts to help navigate the

accomplishments span from exemplary literary works‚ such as those of Cicero‚ Virgil‚ and Goethe; to philosophical breakthroughs of men like Rene Descartes who said‚ “I think therefore I am”‚ and finally to the unprecedented discoveries in the fields of mathematics and science. Among all the civilizations of time‚ those of the Pre-Columbian Era seem to have successfully applied mathematical concepts‚ mainly geometry and algebra‚ in a somewhat uncanny manner. One cannot all but question how engineers of today’s
