Mathematical Thinking and Verifying Erroneous Intuition within the Context of Security. A Case Study
Journal Title: Security Dimensions - Year 2017, Vol 23, Issue 23
Abstract
The article presents an example which demonstrates how misconceptions and erroneous intuition of a subject can have an influence on making incorrect decisions. A simple case study demonstrates that being familiar with basic mathematical principles constitutes a tool sufficient to verify the correctness of reasoning by a subject and, as a result, to make decisions.<br/><br/>
