In Hinduism
Ganitashastra (Mathematics and Algebra)
Source: archive.org: Hindu MathematicsAntarabhāvanā (अन्तरभावना) refers to “subtraction lemma” or “subtractive composition” and represents one of two types of Bhāvanā (“demonstration”) or “proof” (meaning anything demonstrated or proved, hence theorem, lemma), according to the principles of Bījagaṇita (“algebra” or ‘science of calculation’), according to Gaṇita-śāstra, ancient Indian mathematics and astronomy.—The word bhāvanā also means composition or combination. Bhāvanā is further distinguished as: (1) samāsabhāvanā (Addition Lemma or Additive Composition) and (2) antarabhāvanā (Subtraction Lemma or Subtractive Composition).
Ganitashastra (शिल्पशास्त्र, gaṇitaśāstra) refers to the ancient Indian science of mathematics, algebra, number theory, arithmetic, etc. Closely allied with astronomy, both were commonly taught and studied in universities, even since the 1st millennium BCE. Ganita-shastra also includes ritualistic math-books such as the Shulba-sutras.
