Mathematicus^[1] est homo numerorum peritus et mathematicae deditus. Multi mathematici sunt magistri in scholis vel in universitatibus docentes. Qui autem mathematicus sit artem mathematicam non modo docet verum etiam creat: hoc est, theoremata demonstrat. Totis in temporibus effectus mathematicorum et mathematicarum culturae humana maxime erant, sunt, erunt.

Nonnulli mathematici autobiographias vel commentarios de mathematica aliisque mathematicis scripserunt, partim ad pulchritudinem rei indicandam.
