: 以下算是屬於數學哲學 和科學哲學的範疇吧:
: 當愛因斯坦說: “Insofar as the propositions of mathematics give
: an account of reality they are not certain; and insofar as they are
: certain they do not describe reality … But it is, on the other
: hand, certain that mathematics in general and geometry in
: particular owe their existence to our need to learn something about
: the properties of real objects.” 根據這一段文字,請問愛因斯坦認
: 為數學知識與物理知識有何不同?試解釋他的哲學觀點!
僅僅提供我的翻譯:
數學命題在說明現實的時候並不是確切(為真)的;而它們確切(為真)時並
不描述現實... 但從另一方面來說,數學一般而言,特別是幾何學,的確是為
了使我們能從真實物體的屬性學到東西而存在的。
