For my two mostmost recent questionsquestions, I used where I meant as the latter doesn't exists.

The former says:

A simple test to apply is: would an amateur or professional mathematician take an interest in the question?

I guess a mathematician doesn't give a damn about something as "low and spiritless" as optimized integer multiplication. Should we create a tag or should we edit to make it clearer that it includes computer arithmetic as well?

Should we use the [mathematics] tag "mathematics" for "computer arithmetic"?

For my two most recent questions, I used mathematics where I meant arithmetic. as the latter doesn't exists.
