Mathematics is used throughout the world as an essential tool in many
fields, including natural science, engineering, medicine, and the social
sciences such as economics and psychology. Applied mathematics, the
branch of mathematics concerned with application of mathematical
knowledge to other fields, inspires and makes use of new mathematical
discoveries and sometimes leads to the development of entirely new
disciplines. Mathematicians also engage in pure mathematics, or
mathematics for its own sake, without having any application in mind,
although practical applications for what began as pure mathematics are
often discovered later.
