Now mathematicians communicate by e-mail and whenever they want to explain a piece of mathematics they require mathematical symbols which almost always they communicate using TeX. Nobody, to our knowledge, has tried to measure the impact of TeX on the level of mathematical production, and indeed this would be a very difficult thing to measure, but nevertheless I [EFR] am certain that the added ease of production and communication of mathematics using TeX has had a major impact on the subject over the last ten years, say.
Ngayon mathematicians-usap sa pamamagitan ng e-mail at kung kailan nila nais mong ipaliwanag ng isang piraso ng matematika sila nangangailangan ng matematika simbolo na kung saan halos laging sila makipag-usap gamit ang TeX. Walang tao, sa aming kaalaman, ay sinubukan upang masukat ang epekto ng TeX sa antas ng matematika produksyon, at sa katunayan na ito ay magiging isang mahirap bagay upang masukat, ngunit gayon pa man ko [EFR] am tiyak na idinagdag ang kadalian ng produksyon at komunikasyon ng matematika gamit ang TeX ay nagkaroon ng malaking epekto sa ang paksa sa huling sampung taon, say.
