```Mathematics is the language in which the book of nature is written. Mathematics is the queen of the sciences. It is universally agreed that Mathematics is the backbone of Science and Technology. For without Mathematics, the engineer is but an artist or a sculptor. He can build his bridge, attest to it's form and beauty, but without Mathematics he cannot guarantee its reliability to serve the purpose for which it is built. Mathematics is indeed the science of sciences, it is also art of arts. It is right, legitimate and defensible to consider Mathematics as an art. The poet, the musician, the artist and the mathematician have a lot in common. Fundamental to all their studies and works is their common interest in the logical study of related concepts and objects to form pattern called painting and mathematician arrange abstract ideas into a pattern using symbols, to produce equations. Each of these patterns, the poem, the music, the painting, and the equation must stand up to the test of the same order, harmony and beauty. So if Mathematics is not an art, what is art?```
