Human beings solve math equations differently from calculators. Calculators use boolean algebra and the binary system to solve math equations. Humans on the other hand have to write things down, analyze the equation, remember linear numbers, use logic and so forth to solve math problems.

Human beings can solve "any" math equation. A calculator can only solve "some" math equations. I think that is the biggest difference between the two. For example, in the video, the robot is trying to determine the area of a polygon. In order to do this assignment, the robot has to write everything down on paper. A calculator can't do this problem. There is no calculator today that can take a picture of the math instructions and do the equation. A human being has to plug in the numbers and functions; and perform certain operations on the calculator in order to solve this problem.

Human intelligence is required to solve discrete math problems, calculus problems, induction and deduction problems and so forth. This video shows how a robot thinks while doing a math equation. He is analyzing the instructions to determine what he has to do. Everything has to be written down on paper. Sometimes variables are given and the robot has to take these variables and plug them into an equation. The only way to do this is to write things down. He also has to recall certain skills, like solving 2x2 matrices, and algebra knowledge in order to find the area of a polygon.
