The main highlight of this book is a detailed examination of these critical phases and their interconnectedness, primarily in mathematical terms but also in relation to their intellectual, cultural and historical contexts..Recent decades have seen a renewal of interest in this history, as manifested in the publication of an increasing number of critical editions and translations of texts, as well as in an informed analytic interpretation of their content by the scholarly community. The result has been the emergence of a more accurate and balanced view of the subject, and the book has attempted to take an account of these nascent i | | 出版日期 | Book 2018 | | 关键词 | Decimal Numbers; Vedic Geometry; Vedic Literature; Nila Phenomenon; pi- Series; Mathematics of India | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-13-1774-3 | | isbn_softcover | 978-981-13-4681-1 | | isbn_ebook | 978-981-13-1774-3Series ISSN 2196-8810 Series E-ISSN 2196-8829 | | issn_series | 2196-8810 | | copyright | Hindustan Book Agency 2018 |
