I am not sure if much people know but there is a very interesting subject called "Logic" in the study of Philosophy which is as a fact a branch of Maths.
A LOT of people think Philosophy is just a set of statements of people how they perceive and define things but its much more than that and it involves Maths.
These are main Branches of Philosophy :-
- Metaphysics, which deals with the fundamental questions of reality.
- Epistemology, which deals with our concept of knowledge, how we learn and what we can know.
- Logic, which studies the rules of valid reasoning and argumentation
- Ethics, or moral philosophy, which is concerned with human values and how individuals should act.
- Aesthetics or esthetics, which deals with the notion of beauty and the philosophy of art.
There is a sub branch in Logic known as Symbolic Logic which can twist minds while doing brain twisting calculations in long tables and can be quite tough like Maths.A lot of so called intelligent guys here can fail doing these calculations.

Also this Logic used in Truth tables is also used in Digital Electronics(AND,NAND,OR,XOR etc Gates)
Digital Electronics: Gates, Decoders, Multiplexers
Ha Ha Ha ....
Are you sure ??
Maths is a branch of logic or logic is a branch of maths ?? Or None !!
