Mathematics is the study of concepts such as quantity, structure, space and change. It uses these concepts to model and describe the behaviour of real-world complex systems.
Today, mathematics is used in most fields, including technology, natural science, engineering, medicine, finance and the social sciences, such as sociology and psychology.
