N. Megill writes "While mathematics is not "closed source" in the same way that some
computer operating systems are, it can take years of hard work to
acquire the background needed to understand advanced abstract
mathematical proofs. This is because they are usually presented at a
very high level that hides most of the detail, often making them beyond
the grasp of a non-mathematician (even a very smart one such as a
computer programmer). The Metamath
project breaks down mathematical proofs into the finest possible level
of detail and builds mathematics from the ground up. Like Linux From Scratch, it can appeal
to those who like seeing things built up from first principles.
Metamath does not claim to teach you mathematics, just as reading the
kernel source code does not teach you how to use Linux, but there can be
a certain satisfaction in just knowing it is there."
