“…Robert Adrain started another journal, The Mathematical Diary, shortly after the fall of Nash's Diary. This undertaking lasted considerably longer, from 1825 to 1832, likely because of the low difficulty level and thus accessibility it offered [10]. As this brief list shows, mathematical journals in early nineteenth century America were short lived at best, and in this context, The Diary's three years could be considered a respectable run.…”

“…En cualquier caso, conviene subrayar que los estudios en el caso español muestran, como en el caso estadounidense 20 , que los diferentes intentos fallidos en la consolidación de revistas matemáticas son de orden socioeconómico: el escaso número de suscriptores -siempre por debajo del centenar -es consecuencia de una incultura matemática general derivada de una instrucción matemática rudimentaria, de la escasez de perspectivas profesionales asociadas a los estudios matemáticos y de la inoperancia de unos poderes públicos desentendidos del desarrollo matemático nacional.…”

“…Physics and mathematics are the two most closely related natural rudimentary subjects (Kareem & Hussin, 2013;Kent, 2008). In the study of physics, often need to rely on mathematical rigorous reasoning and argumentation, but also need to use a variety of mathematical methods for investigation, reasoning, calculus, test, discussion, but students often appear in these difficulties (Yopp, 2011).…”
