A relationship between natural or manmade elements that is used in every discipline except circuit logic. Algebraic and geometric equations are at the heart of scientific research and practice from atomic levels to space exploration. Equations are also used in every facet of engineering from developing new electronics to building skyscrapers. See
mathematical function.
Integrated Circuit Logic
Electronic circuits that perform every function in a chip are wired together using Boolean logic, sometimes known as the "mathematics of logic." See
