Algebra is a sub within mathematics‚ but for historical reasons‚ the word "algebra" has three meanings that can all suffice in defining the word or term . Algebra can mean use of letters and symbols to represent values and their relations‚ especially for solving equations‚major branch of mathematics which studies relations and operations or mathematical structure as a "linear" ring‚ is also called "algebra‚" or sometimes .algebra is one of main branches of pure mathematics‚ together with geometry

George Boole: The Genius George Boole was a British mathematician‚ and he is known as the inventor of Boolean Algebra. His theories combined the concepts of logic and mathematics‚ and hence he is known as the father of mathematical logic. This combination of mathematics and logic came to be known as Boolean algebra‚ and is the basis of digital electronic design‚ which is used in fields ranging from telephone switching to computer engineering. Because of the utilization of the concepts of Boolean

mathematicians agreed with Kronecker that the completed infinite may be part of philosophy or theology‚ but that it has no proper place in mathematics". Even the great Gauss‚ according to the wikipedia article was saying that "Infinity is nothing more than a figure of speech which helps us talk about limits. The notion of a completed infinity doesn’t belong in mathematics"‚ e.g. "the only access we have to the infinite is through the notion of limits‚ and hence‚ we must not treat infinite sets as if they

mathematicians‚ usually people would envision a male rather than a female. However‚ this is false. Though many males have provided a vast amount of contributions to the mathematic field‚ numerous women have also played an immense role as well. Emmy Noether is one woman in the mathematic field who has contributed and transformed mathematics. Bettye Anne Case and Anne M. Leggett state‚ “Noether is indisputably among the greatest mathematicians of the twentieth century” (3). This is one of the reasons that
