童鞋们，欧几里得不是中国人，他是希腊人

希望大家知道“几何”还有“几何学”都是中文，而且是一回事儿

简单的说：几何==几何学，或，几何等于几何学

只有极端傻 逼的文科生才在“几何”跟“几何学”之间纠缠不休

你要纠缠就关上门在你自己家里，你愿意怎么撸就怎么撸，你自己撸出来的东西只有你和你的爱人爱，嘿嘿

但是，公共场合，几何==几何学

至于神马神马“之父”，只不过是粉丝的崇拜，解读这些无聊的玩意儿也是自撸，回家关上门在你自己家里愿意怎么撸就怎么撸

希望大家知道欧几里得不是中国人，他是希腊人，所以，一切以希腊文为准，希腊文的几何是“测地”的意思，至于英语，就是“geometry”，“geometry”==几何==几何学

好在，维基百科也是这个原则，大家请看，注意寻找“几何”跟“几何学”的区别

Geometry (from the Ancient Greek: γεωμετρ?α; geo- "earth", -metron "measurement") is a branch of mathematics concerned with questions of shape, size, relative position of figures, and the properties of space. A mathematician who works in the field of geometry is called a geometer.

Geometry arose independently in a number of early cultures as a practical way for dealing with lengths, areas, and volumes. Geometry began to see elements of formal mathematical science emerging in the West as early as the 6th century BC.^[1] By the 3rd century BC, geometry was put into an axiomatic form by Euclid, whose treatment, Euclid's Elements, set a standard for many centuries to follow.^[2] Geometry arose independently in India, with texts providing rules for geometric constructions appearing as early as the 3rd century BC.^[3] Islamic scientists preserved Greek ideas and expanded on them during the Middle Ages.^[4] By the early 17th century, geometry had been put on a solid analytic footing by mathematicians such as René Descartes and Pierre de Fermat. Since then, and into modern times, geometry has expanded into non-Euclidean geometry and manifolds, describing spaces that lie beyond the normal range of human experience.^[5]

While geometry has evolved significantly throughout the years, there are some general concepts that are more or less fundamental to geometry. These include the concepts of points, lines, planes, surfaces, angles, and curves, as well as the more advanced notions of manifolds and topology or metric.^[6]

Geometry has applications to many fields, including art, architecture, physics, as well as to other branches of mathematics.
