math or music be classified as a language? “Mathematics is the language with which God has written the universe.” Declares the Italian physicist‚ mathematician‚ astronomer‚ and philosopher Galileo Galilei‚ when we think in modern sense language is a system of linguistic signs or symbols. In other words it’s the basis of communication. Some people communicate using sign language while others rely on gestures and facial expressions. Mathematics and music may also be used to communicate to some

Mathematics is for the most part (at least what people see) is a science; adding‚ subtracting‚ multiplying‚ dividing‚ differentiating‚ integrating‚ etc. These are all very well defined operations which‚ for the most part‚ have very algorithmic solution methods. The art comes in the proofs. Typically‚ when formulating
