Math and Chess?

This topic might have come along before,but what do you agree with? Does chess help you in math? Does math help you in chess?

Chess and math both have very strong connections. They both need brain power, they both need calculations. They both need quite some practice!

So, 'are (most) chess players also mathematicians? Do each one (maths or chess) give an advantage to the other?' What do you think?

This is quite an interesting topic. What I think is that most likely, chess players are also mathematcians.

Math, much like chess, has everything to do with pattern recognition. This means that if one excells at chess, he has the potential to also be good at math, and vise versa, however the talent for pattern recognition (and insight) also requires knowledge of the subject. - Filier

I don't think so, Chess is more about memory than (math-related) calculations.

I agree with you Weal. Each, math and chess, have thier own goods and bads... In that way, It does not make them quite like eachother...

Heh, I'm the wrong person to ask what you need to be good at math! ;)

To me it's just applying a few formula, whereas chess is moreso about looking further than the visible, standard things.

(Just my point of view ofcourse)

Are they Equal? Are chess players also Math people? What do you think?!
