童鞋們,歐幾裏得不是中國人,他是希臘人
希望大家知道“幾何”還有“幾何學”都是中文,而且是一回事兒
簡單的說:幾何==幾何學,或,幾何等於幾何學
隻有極端傻 逼的文科生才在“幾何”跟“幾何學”之間糾纏不休
你要糾纏就關上門在你自己家裏,你願意怎麽擼就怎麽擼,你自己擼出來的東西隻有你和你的愛人愛,嘿嘿
但是,公共場合,幾何==幾何學
至於神馬神馬“之父”,隻不過是粉絲的崇拜,解讀這些無聊的玩意兒也是自擼,回家關上門在你自己家裏願意怎麽擼就怎麽擼
希望大家知道歐幾裏得不是中國人,他是希臘人,所以,一切以希臘文為準,希臘文的幾何是“測地”的意思,至於英語,就是“geometry”,“geometry”==幾何==幾何學
好在,維基百科也是這個原則,大家請看,注意尋找“幾何”跟“幾何學”的區別
Geometry (from the Ancient Greek: γεωμετρ?α; geo- "earth", -metron "measurement") is a branch of mathematics concerned with questions of shape, size, relative position of figures, and the properties of space. A mathematician who works in the field of geometry is called a geometer.
Geometry arose independently in a number of early cultures as a practical way for dealing with lengths, areas, and volumes. Geometry began to see elements of formal mathematical science emerging in the West as early as the 6th century BC.[1] By the 3rd century BC, geometry was put into an axiomatic form by Euclid, whose treatment, Euclid's Elements, set a standard for many centuries to follow.[2] Geometry arose independently in India, with texts providing rules for geometric constructions appearing as early as the 3rd century BC.[3] Islamic scientists preserved Greek ideas and expanded on them during the Middle Ages.[4] By the early 17th century, geometry had been put on a solid analytic footing by mathematicians such as René Descartes and Pierre de Fermat. Since then, and into modern times, geometry has expanded into non-Euclidean geometry and manifolds, describing spaces that lie beyond the normal range of human experience.[5]
While geometry has evolved significantly throughout the years, there are some general concepts that are more or less fundamental to geometry. These include the concepts of points, lines, planes, surfaces, angles, and curves, as well as the more advanced notions of manifolds and topology or metric.[6]
Geometry has applications to many fields, including art, architecture, physics, as well as to other branches of mathematics.
