Cora Sadosky
Cora Susana Sadosky de Goldstein (May 23, 1940 – December 3, 2010) was an Argentine mathematician and Professor of Mathematics at Howard University. Early life and education Sadosky was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, the daughter of mathematicians Manuel Sadosky and Cora Ratto de Sadosky, Corina Eloísa "Cora" Ratto de Sadosky. At the age of 6, she moved with her parents to France and Italy. Sadosky began college at age 15 in the School of Science of the University of Buenos Aires, obtaining her degree of Licenciatura (comparable to a Bachelor's degree in the US nomenclature) in 1960. She earned her doctorate at the University of Chicago in 1965. Career After receiving her doctorate she returned to Argentina. She became an assistant professor of Mathematics at the University of Buenos Aires.

Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...
