ALL ABOut mathematic...
In this page, i will introduce some opinion about ancient mathematich and mathematich in now period. Time and place in the past and present have relationship with history of mathematic.
1. I found that mathematic concept, mathematic problem and solving in ancient period that in now :
a. Phytagoras Theorm
Phytagoras theorm was found by babilonians at 1000 BC ago. But Phytagoras proved the best of pythagoras theorm mathematically. The theorem called “the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares whose sides are the two legs (the two sides that meet at a right angle)”.
b. Logic
Aristoteles is the first finding logic. Logic use to explanation sentense. Although, some times used to give conclusion.
c. algebra from al khawarizmi, calculus from newton and lebneiz, derivate, probability, etc.
2. I found mathematic concept, Problem and solving mathematic in old period whom don’t use in this period :That is π = 3,125 from babilonia, he tables of square root, tables of rank three and rank two. The traditional equipment not use in today.
3. I found mathematic concept, Problem and solving mathematic not relationship with ancient period. :
The modern technology. For example computer use to 2 digits for operation it`s 1 and zero. Calculating with finger, sempoa, etc.

Foundations of mathematics
The foundation mathematich very important. This is used to some field of mathematich. Such as mathematical logic, axiomatic set theory, proof theory, model theory, and recursion theory.
The foundation give much assumption from philosophy of mathematich. For example the the assumstion from plato, aristoteles, brouwer, immanuel kant, etc .
The main of Foundation of mathematich it is :
1. Platonism..
Platonism is from plato. Platonism is veru important for mathematich method. He is the son of Ariston and Perictione, was born in Athens. The foundational philosophy of Platonist mathematical realism, as give by mathematician Kurt Gödel. The platonism is term of plato cave. The Follow of plato mathematic as ideal’s. This mathematic are be found in your idea.
2. Intuitionism
Intuitionism is from LEJ Brouwer, it is contends the primary objects of mathematical discourse are mental constructions governed by self-evident laws. Intuitionists have challenged many of the oldest principles of mathematics as being nonconstructive and hence mathematically meaningless. intuitionism is a program of methodological reform whose motto is that "there are no non-experienced mathematical truths. In intuitionism, the term "explicit construction" is not cleanly defined, and that has led to criticisms

THE REASON LEARNING HYSTORY OF MATHEMATICS.
Mathematic is main resource in our life and live in our mind. So we need to learn mathematics. beside that, we also have to know about Hystory Of mathematics.
Time and place in the past and present have relationship with history of mathematic. With background assumption :
1. Growth student have responsibility for the change.
2. Unique student and different than the other in te world.
3. The sosial person : work together with the other/ not individually
4. Learning hystory using with sources. For example browsing internet, reads hystory books, etc.
5. Principle academic value.
History mathematic divide at two is it:
1. The thought of matematics
Thought from philosopher, historian, and mathematician,
2. Archeology Inheritance and physic
- Geographical ( Babilonia inheritance, egypt, greek, etc)
- Archeology ( artefak archeological Remains, example table of mathematics)
Mathematics was born from culture life, producting equipment, culture law.
The Basic modal `s learning history of mathematich :
1. Have fun, motivation, and ambition
2. Attitude
3. Knowledge and ability of comunication or discussing
4. Internet browsing.
