In Hinduism
Ganitashastra (Mathematics and Algebra)
Source: archive.org: Hindu MathematicsAnupāta (अनुपात) refers to “proportion” in the Trairāśika (“rule of three”), which represents one of the twenty operations (logistics) of pāṭīgaṇita (“science of calculation which requires the use of writing material—the board”), according to Pṛthudakasvāmī’s commentary on the Brāhmasphuṭasiddhānta by Brahmagupta, a Sanskrit treatise on ancient Indian mathematics (gaṇita-śāstra) and astronomy from the 7th century.
According to Bhaskara I (c. 525) in his commentary on the Āryabhaṭīya: “Here Ācārya Āryabhaṭa has described the Rule of Three (trairāśika) only. How the well-known Rules of Five, etc. are to be obtained? I say thus: The Ācārya has described only the fundamentals of anupāta (proportion). All others such as the Rule of Five, etc., follow from that fundamental rule of proportion. How? The Rule of Five, etc., consist of combinations of the Rule of Three .... In the Rule of Five there are two Rules of Three, in the Rule of Seven, three Rules of Three, and so on. This I shall point out in the examples”.
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.
