Mathematicus

Mathematicus^[1] est homo numerorum peritus et mathematicae deditus. Multi mathematici sunt magistri in scholis vel in universitatibus docentes. Qui autem mathematicus sit artem mathematicam non modo docet verum etiam creat: hoc est, theoremata demonstrat. Totis in temporibus effectus mathematicorum et mathematicarum culturae humana maxime erant, sunt, erunt.
