The left side of the brain (or the left hemisphere) has many functions. Two of these are:
1) Processing of information - the left side of the brain takes small bits of information then orders and processes them to get the whole picture and form conclusions. (In contrast, the right side of the brain will look at the whole picture first and then break it down).
2) Processing of symbols and numbers - People who have a more dominant left side of the brain are usually able to solve maths and logic problems more easily than people with a dominant right hemisphere.
