Ancient-Indian 'number and language' applications have greatly helped Indians for past many centuries. Article cites ancient Indian number theory and 'way it evolved'. It did not change ever since its inception. A language version of Vedic-computing-sutras is publicly known today, which also has a hidden matrix-link! Mathematicians (including Indians) agree that zero is Indian-knowledge but none have claimed what could have caused 'a very early zero evolution in India'!
During 1911-1918 Shree Jagadguru Sankaracarya revealed 'sense of sixteen Vedic sutras' as sixteen manuscripts, which were irretrievably lost before a publishing? In 1965, another volume was published by his followers but a relation between zero and Vedic mathematics is not stated in it. However, subject matters reveal zero-concept! We are not sure if any one of said 'lost manuscripts' had cited zero-relation!
Subject matters of this article reveal 'relations of zero and zero-start-matrix' to Vedic Mathematics. Apparently, Indians had not effectively propagated benefits of 'zero and zero-start matrixes' to outer world in an easy-to-grasp manner (say together with matrix), which could have stopped evolution of 'numbers less than zero'. A difficulty associated to concurrent use of 'plus and minus'-numbers is known to each student. Using plus-numbers alone is an ancient Indian way and use of ten-based numbers (in metric system) carries it to computers!
Modern computers just follow principles of Vedic computing, which appears in a Veda/ (say supreme public-knowledge). Hinduism sticks to a principle that "a Vedic-knowledge should never be changed". So an original version of ancient Indian Vedic Mathematics still remains!
Article reveals manners to 'understand and apply number application skills' and ways to propagate it systematically! A 'number-matrix link' is a key expertise and article show how to use it for visual computing!
Science relates bare 'absolute-truth states'! Changes do take place in 'knowledge applications' but change should not creep into basic knowledge itself as we saw in 'evolution of numbers less than zero'. There is nothing wrong in 'a minus number application' except that it is complex to grasp. Vedic Mathematics will remain 'simplest' forever! |
