Arithmetic is one of the branches of mathematics; generally the first one that people learn. It is concerned with the nature of operations upon quantities: addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and exponentation.
The other branches of mathematics are (in no particular order): algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, topology, analytic geometry, and...I'm probably forgetting some. [img]smile.gif[/img] -Sazerac

I love algebra! In fact, I love mathematics. I know, I'm a freak.
