Quantity

edit Main article: Quantity See also: Outline of arithmetic and History of arithmetic Number theory is a branch of pure mathematics devoted primarily to the study of the integers and integer-valued functions. Arithmetic — (from the Greek ἀριθμός arithmos, 'number' and τική [τέχνη], tiké [téchne], 'art') is a branch of mathematics that consists of the study of numbers and the properties of the traditional mathematical operations on them. Elementary arithmetic is the part of arithmetic which deals with basic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Modular arithmetic is a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers "wrap around" when reaching a certain value, called the modulus. Second-order arithmetic is a collection of axiomatic systems that formalize the natural numbers and their subsets. Peano axioms also known as the Dedekind–Peano axioms or the Peano postulates, are axioms for the natural numbers presented by the 19th century Italian mathematician Giuseppe Peano. Floating-point arithmetic is arithmetic using formulaic representation of real numbers as an approximation to support a trade-off between range and precision. Numbers — a mathematical object used to count, measure, and label.

The number of operands is the arity of the operation.
