This is the basis. Why is mathematics needed in everyday life

The widespread use of computers may create the impression that mathematics is no longer needed, that today's technologies allow for the most complex computational operations to be performed in a fraction of a second. This naive view prompted the well-known science popularizer Ian Stewart to show readers the not-so-obvious merits of his beloved discipline, as its role is by no means limited to calculations, and thanks to computers relieving us from monotonous work, we simply start to engage with mathematics differently. Mathematics is behind all the transformative technologies that make the 21st century completely different from the preceding era. Without mathematics, digital photography, modern communication, and satellite navigation are unimaginable; it is also essential for predicting the impacts of climate change. This list can go on and on, without forgetting to mention the humanities and the arts, politics, and internet security. In short, the author believes that the need for this science is universal; it is the foundation of foundations.
