  • Madhava Nilakanta is the inventor of calculus...inenvted 250 years before newton...hell yeah...google it

  • INDIAN MATHEMATICIAN MADHAVA IS A REAL INVENTOR OF CALCULUS !

    WHOLE WORLD KNOW THAT !

  • @souro19 Every single country claims they had a genius who invented calculus including Europeans, Chinese, Indians, etc. This is true, many ancient civilizations knew a form of calculus in its primitive form. However, this doesn't mean anything because they didn't publish their proofs or practice the scientific method's 2nd to last step, "peer review of a publish document." Newton was the first to do it thoroughly showing mathematical proof.

  • @hardassteel INDIAN MATHEMATICIAN MADHAVA INVENTED THE CALCULUS MORE THAN 1500 YEARS AGO OF DARK AGE !

    HER WROTED ANCIENT BOOK'' Madhava of Sangamagrama '' IS THE PROVE OF REAL INVENTION OF CALCULUS !

    OTHER'S ARE SUCKED

    INDIA ALL READY LEADER OF MATHEMATICS INVENTION !

    ZERO IS THE MAIN-LY INVENTED IN INDIA !

  • @souro19 You are just being biased because you are Indian and you want to take credit for inventing calculus. You are jealous.

  • @hardassteel '' Madhava of Sangamagrama'' BOOK IS THE PROVE ABOUT REAL INVENTOR OF CALCULUS !

    IN 6 YEARS AGO WHOLE WORLD AND INDIA OBEY THE LEIBNIZ AND NEWTON FOR THAT INVENTION !

  • @hardassteel That's not true the Indian text the Yuktibhāṣā contains many proofs

    It's debatable whether or not Indians did Calculus first, but it's not debatable whether or not they had components of Calculus first

    How can anyone claim that differentiation, term by term integration, iterative methods for solutions of non-linear equations, etc...aren't components of Calculus?

    But this doesn't take anything away for Newton

  • @itstheChampion88 A true mathematician or scientist doesn't seek fame, glamour nor prestige but the advancement of our understanding of this universe. Look, I have heard it all, everybody always tells me a story about how their people discovered calculus first. Chinese, Koreans, Indians, Pakistanis, Arabians, Russians, French, Scottish, Italian, Jewish, etc. Who cares? You didn't discover it, so quit trying to claim your people discovered it so you can experience prestige, because its lame.

  • @hardassteel what are you talking about?

    Instead of refuting any statement I made all you did was change the subject to claiming everybody claims that their "people" invented Calculus...wtf?

    What a delusional.

    Just look up what the Yuktibhāṣā is. It even contains Cauchy's tests of convergence.

    If the Yuktibhāṣā is not calculus then it's the closest thing to calculus prior to Newton or Euler.

    White historians seem to have no problem giving Archimedes credit for calculus lol

  • @itstheChampion88 what about Archimedes, he was stepping towards the development of Calculus 1800 years before Newton or Leibniz.. found that out by reading the Archimedes Codex, a very good book .

  • @stretch4859 lol Archimedes did nothing like Calculus...if a non-white mathematician had did what Archimedes did I'm sure that white historians would NEVER EVER dare consider it as Calculus

    The closest thing to Calculus prior to Newton and Leibniz is the Kerala School's Mathematical Analysis

    I don't really consider it as a complete form of calculus, just very close to Calculus

  • @itstheChampion88 do your history like I said historians not I said that 1800 years before Newton and Leibniz invented Calculus Archimedes was making steps towards the development of the Calculus, and this is also what mathematical historians say that Archimedes had done he approximated the value of pi, he developed the theory of centers of gravity, just to name a few of what mathematical historians say about Archimedes..

  • @stretch4859 Who cares if it was 1800 years before Newton or Leibniz? What Archimedes did is DEFINITELY NOT calculus...every mathematician knows that. The main reason why Archimedes gets credit is specifically because he is white, and the reason why non-whites who came much closer to calculus do not get credit is because they are non-white.

    Approximating pi? That's not calculus. I'm not talking about how much of a genius Archimedes was, I'm talking about if what he did is calculus.

  • @stretch4859 once again I didn't come to this conclusion it was a mathematical historian that said that Archimedes was stepping towards the development of calculus. Just look it up. Your the one who made a comment towards me and I was just clarifying that it wasn't me who originally made that statement it was mathematical historians, and they are mathematicians by the way they just specialize in the history of math and the mathematicians who made their mark in the world of mathematics.

  • awesome

  • i just can't think of anything finer

  • the youtube window was still up when i logged on to the m-ag computer this morning, so i went ahead and took a look ^__^ it looks great.
