Mathematicism is 'the effort to employ the formal structure and rigorous method of mathematics as a model for the conduct of philosophy'. or else it is the epistemological view that reality is fundamentally mathematical. The term has been applied to a number of philosophers, including Pythagoras and René Descartes although the term is not used by themselves. The role of mathematics in Western philosophy has grown and expanded from Pythagoras onwards. Pythagoras is often quoted as first saying "everything is number," and although there is no direct evidence he said this, it is clear that numbers held a particular importance for the Pythagorean school, although it was the later work of Plato that attracts the label of mathematicism from modern philosophers. Furthermore it is René Descartes who provides the first mathematical epistemology which he describes as a mathesis universalis, and which is also referred to as mathematicism. (Wikipedia).
