Wandering Around | Types of Spaces - Algebraic Structures and Mathematical Spaces
First Initiation When we first started to learn mathematics, our concern is only to solve problems, understand what equation means, comprehend what teacher says during class and etc. At high school we learn more about sets and functions. However, if we are not curious enough, then the philosophical meaning of the word “mathematical space” is not emphasized. When $f: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{Q}$ is written, everybody who has learned high school math can say “the function takes values from $\mathbb{R}$ and maps it to $\mathbb{Q}$. But have people reading this ever thought about the background? ...
