Short for 'mathematics'. Commonly called 'math' by idiotic yanks bastardising a perfectly well made language. Could be classed as the study of numbers, but it's much more. There are many real world uses for maths. A builder uses maths to work out how much flooring he needs in square metres. An accountant uses maths to work out your correct salary based on your hourly rate. The list goes on
"I can use maths to work out how much flooring I need, by multiplying 5 by 5, that's 25 square metres!"

Get the mathmug. short for "mathematics". A science taught in schools varying form "basic math" to "calculus" and "statistics". It is known as the study of measurement and properties using numbers and symbols such as < > + = - / and countless others as the work becomes more difficult.

Get the mathmug. Math is the study of patterns in everything. It can be very useful in its applied forms, but it also has the potential to be abstract beyond practicality.

Get the MATHSmug. Abstract thinking in its purest forms using numerical objects. Mathematicians and physicists (ie, applied mathematicians) have been proven to be the smartest people in the world; the people who "don't get it" become retarded history majors.
I tried to use the Dirac Delta Function to patch the singularity in the path integral, but LOL it diverges and I failed completely so I had to find a new topoligical metric. Maybe I should have used a contour integral.
