To quote you back "But that's not mathematics, that's arithmetic".
I can see your point of view, but arithmetic is one of oldest fundamentals of mathematics. This is the way I was thought.

Its like the old saying "Its not what you say, but how you say it". In this day and age, people generally get the perception that mathematics is all about counting.
