    Well yes/.............. and no.


    You see, if we had any understanding, mathematics is just math. It's what we get from it, does it allow us understanding... if that makes any sense.

    Yes, I see. Math is not real. But, it may help us understand the motion of matter, as we can equate those symbols we create in math with real objects.
