==Major Query==
Will someone please explain why things like Box & Whisker Plots, Acute angle are included in Algebra?
Clearly this section has been writen by someone with only a very basic knowlwdge of mathematica, and little understanding that ASlgebra is an encompassing term which includes things like communtative algebras, non-commutiative Algebras, Clifford Algebras, Lie Algebras etc.
In addition, any attempt to discuss 'Algebra', should reference its origins. The first person to use this term was Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī (780-850),in a text entitled al-Kitāb al-mukhtaṣar fī ḥisāb al-jabr wa-l-muqābala (Arabic: الكتاب المختصر في حساب الجبر والمقابلة “The Compendious Book on Calculation by Completion and Balancing”) written approximately 830 CE.
