Since Galileo and Newton, the tool for describing the laws of science is mathematics. The laws of physics are almost completely described in mathematics, with all kinds of equations. But is it possible that there are other tools for describing scientific laws? For example, I found that the laws of psychology can be described in a tool called "program". How about you? Have you found any other tools to describe the laws?
In the natural sciences, mathematical equations are used to describe laws, such as physics. But in the social sciences, such as economics, psychology, biology, etc., mathematics is not very appropriate, so what tools? The methodology of natural science is reductionism, while social science is a complex scientific method. The two are different. What tools are used to describe the law of social science?
Have you ever thought about this question? That is, what tools are used to describe the laws of science? Is there only math? Do you know that the tool for describing the laws of modern science is mathematics? Have you noticed what describes the laws of science?
