Mathematics is not just mechanical calculations. It is a study of facts of numbers and logic, where logic is interwoven in the study of numbers.

It provides an opportunity to explore self-assessment, data processing, validation, to develop broader thinking by dealing with a variety of problems which lead to multiple solutions. The joy of discovery of this process, helps realize the powerful applications of mathematics in various other domains.
