Importance of Mathematics

Mathematics is an interesting subject and is must for the life on the way of growth. Without mathematics, we can say life is a big "zero". But, is it a wise decision to give sports more importance than mathematics at school level ? Now, governments are thinking about this. Since, number of failing students in the mathematics is going higher in each year, they are thinking about the reduction of this "burden". From VIIIth standard, they are trying to make Maths as optional subject.

There was a day, when people are not interested to make money. They were ready to be as what they were. They were happy too. As, the human thinking level is going high, new inventions came. People are intended to catch up these new life, but money becomes obstacle. So, the need for high level education becomes must to achieve this. Now, eveywhere a trend is, parents want their children is either a doctor or engineer. This technical life must need Mathematics. Recently, one of my friend asked, what is the need to study mathematics, as he is doing MCA (Master of Computer Applications)? There comes the importance of Mathematics.

Have you ever think about the importance and role Mathematics playing in the life? Like my friend asked, I have a lot of reasons to explain. I asked my friend, why you came to study MCA after graduation? He said, he needs a good job and that must have a role with good take home package. For that, why you came for MCA? Don't you find anything else? I asked. He said, in IT, salary is that, what we are asking, not they are deciding. I agreed to him, but I asked, you need in the I. T. level, but don't want to study Maths, right? He said, yes, it is a dangerous subject. I told, that is the beauty of the subject.

First reason for the importance of mathematics is, the improvement of thinking level. Maths is the world of tips and tricks. To be with the tips and tricks world, you need the good thinking level. By studying Maths, you will get it. Second, all the day to day activities in the normal life can be defined by Mathematics. By doing the programming, you are changing the hectic schedule of life to an easy one. The coding from the hectic to easy need a good thinking level and good logical level. Logical level is always supporting wants a support of Mathematics. If you are checking any code of software programmes, they are having hundreds or thousands of Mathematical functions. If you don't know these levels of Mathematics, how can you simplify a code or become a good programmer? Third, in any technical field, Mathematics is playing a big role.

Optional subject as Mathematics is a good and can be acceptable for those who are beleiving cannot achieve the heights of Maths. But, remember one thing, everybody can't become a Sachin or Beckham. The way of success is residing thier own decision to the leading life. For a wise decision must have some calculations, that also needs Mathematics.
