However, as with Egyptian mathematics, Babylonian mathematics shows no awareness of the difference between exact and approximate solutions, or the solvability of a problem, and most importantly, no explicit statement of the need for proofs or logical principles.
Con todo, igual que as matemáticas exipcias, as babilónicas non mostran conciencia da diferenza entre solucións exactas e aproximadas, a resolubilidade dun problema ou a afirmación explícita da necesidade de probas ou principios lóxicos.
