a: Mathematics ~
b: poetry
What:
"Mathematics is like poetry: both are dense. Mathematics isn't classed as art by the general public. Neither is engineering, nor computer programming, although "The Art of Computer Programming" [1] fairly describes what people do in getting software to perform. Math, engineering, computer programming, chemistry and physics have much in common with other forms of art. Below we call these and aspects certain others, statistics and economics in particular, the quantitative fields."
