The first subset of Formal Science is Mathematics, the study of numbers, quantity, structure and space.
My ASL Dictionary cartoon of a calculating Mathematician illustrates the ASL hand sign for MATHEMATICS.
An initialized sign, the M hands brush against each other as the arms cross twice.
For the different branches of Math, the hand sign is the same but with a different initial. Ex. T hand for Trigonometry, G hand for Geometry, C hand for Calculus, and A hand for Algebra.
