Experimental mathematics
ID: experimental-mathematics
Experimental mathematics is a branch of mathematics that emphasizes the use of computational techniques, numerical experimentation, and visualization to explore mathematical conjectures, generate insights, and discover new patterns. Unlike traditional mathematics, which often relies heavily on formal proofs and theoretical frameworks, experimental mathematics allows mathematicians to use computers and algorithms to investigate problems, test hypotheses, and explore the implications of mathematical ideas.
