I'm ok with that if it can be expected to hold 50-100. I am far more comfortable with putting computational stuff like that into numerics as a split category from math; I think they get used for many thing beyond what I'd call science/sciences. For example, various matrix algebra stuff gets used for surveying, and that's engineering not science. > I also kind of feel like "sciences" would be a better name than > "science", but that gets into TEAL WITH CREAM ACCEConnection closed by > foreign host. :-)
