Algebra was first studied thousands of years ago by the ancient Egyptians and Babylonians. For most of its history, people studied and developed algebra for enjoyment and intellectual challenge. In the last couple of centuries, algebra has been used extensively in the development of science, engineering medicine, and other fields.
