Answer:
can remember three big paradigm shifts I’ve experienced with mathematics. The first was when I studied calculus for the first time (years ago now). Up to that point I thought mathematics was a very dull, boring process of solving for variables, using reams and reams of paper and long list of trig identities that were meaningless and complicated.
Calculus and, more so, differential equations showed me that mathematics were instead very powerful tools that allowed us to analyse complicated, living systems and find solution for systems that changed all the time, but had boundaries. Paradigm shift number 1.
Shift number two occurred during my first ever Modern Algebra course in college, when I flirted ever so briefly with becoming a mathematician. It was a more personal paradigm shift that saw me quickly realize that I liked answers I could do stuff with. Hence engineering over mathematics.
The third shift was larger in scale. I remember when I thought that algebra was it’s own branch of mathematics, geometry it’s own, calculus it’s own, and so forth. Then I read a book (and more importantly did more math) and saw that, instead, it’s a variously-interconnected, only dimly glimpsed web of …Platonic stuff? My mental image of mathematics closely resembles what I imagine a global scale, 3D map of the ocean is like: we’ve explored some of it pretty well and thoroughly, and gone to the bottom-most trenches in a very few areas, but otherwise that’s a huge amount out there we know nothing about.
