Abstract
Mathematics is virtually a product of pure thought. Even though it draws its starting point from the world of experience, it refines them into concepts well beyond the scope of that world, and then, by purely logical processes of combinations, inference and constructions, builds up the most elaborate thought schemes. We now discuss the genesis of these thought schemes and how they were deployed. The set of numbers {1, 2, 3, 4…} are called counting numbers or, as mathematicians say, natural numbers. You will observe that zero is not a number of this set. However, in recent times zero has been added to this set as mathematicians thought that there is something very natural about zero. Now the set of counting numbers or Naturals look like this: {1, 2, 3, 4, …}
