Abstraction is the process of simplifying complex systems by focusing on essential features and ignoring unnecessary details. It enables machines to generalize knowledge, analyze data efficiently, and make informed decisions based on higher-level representations. Abstraction enables us to grasp the essence of something without being overwhelmed by its intricacies. It plays a fundamental role in various disciplines, including computer science, mathematics, art, and philosophy, helping us to better understand and work with complex systems and ideas.
