hi, a poll has been going on about our favourite fields in mathematics. i decided to run a poll on broader topics, namely, pure mathematics and applied mathematics. which one do you guys prefer?

Pure maths, also known as theoretical maths, is the study of mathematical concepts and structures for their own sake, without any real-world applications in mind. On the other hand, applied maths uses mathematical principles and techniques to solve real-world problems in fields such as physics, engineering, and economics.
Both pure maths and applied maths are equally important in their own ways. Pure maths is essential for developing new mathematical theories and concepts that can eventually be applied to solve real-world problems. Applied maths, on the other hand, is crucial for finding practical solutions to various problems in different fields.
Yes, it is possible for someone to be skilled in both pure maths and applied maths. While they require different approaches and skills, many mathematicians have a strong foundation in both areas and are able to apply theoretical concepts to real-world problems.
It is not necessary to study pure maths before studying applied maths. However, having a strong understanding of pure maths concepts can be beneficial for understanding the underlying principles of applied maths and its applications in different fields.
Absolutely! Pure maths and applied maths are closely interconnected and often work hand in hand to solve problems. Pure maths provides the theoretical foundation for applied maths, while applied maths uses pure maths concepts to address real-world issues.
