Prediction is a key element in the development of science and in its philosophical study. Mathematics is used to make predictions, but philosophically this is an almost unnoticed element: neither has it been analyzed from the point of view of its role in science nor has it received attention from the perspective of its contribution to the concept of "scientific prediction." Wittgenstein has thought about different aspects of this problem, especially in his Bemerkungen über die Grundlagen der Mathematik.
