A Historical View of Computers and Mathematics

Abstract

There always exist a deep relationship between computers and mathematics from the ancient time. Although computers are the most powerful tool for mathematical teaching and learning but one can’t ignore the role of mathematics to invent computers in ancient time. . This paper not only represents the development of theories and methods for computer and information sciences, implementation, and analysis of algorithms and software tools for mathematical computation and the integration of mathematics but also reflects the importance of mathematics in developing the computer science.  Learning with computers serves more effectively than the traditional methods. Technological changes transform the pedagogy in mathematics education and also in the nature of mathematical thinking and understanding.
