All of math is fancy addition.
Subtraction: adding backwards
Multiplication: adding the same thing several times
Division: adding backwards several times
Exponents: adding the same thing several times, several times
Roots: adding backwards several times, several times
Geometry/Trig: adding lines and angles
Integral calculus: how to add forever but not take forever to do it
Differential calculus: adding different amounts at different times
Statistics: the philosophy of adding
Linear algebra: adding in multiple dimensions
