Kuṭṭākāraśiromaṇi (कुट्टाकारशिरोमणि) is the name of a work by Devarāja dealing with the subject of “indeterminate analysis of the first degree”, according to the principles of Bījagaṇita (“algebra” or ‘science of calculation’), according to Gaṇita-śāstra, ancient Indian mathematics and astronomy.—On account of its special importance, the treatmeat of this subject [i.e., ‘indeterminate analysis of the first degree’] has been included by Bhāskara II in his treatise of arithmetic also, though it belongs particularly to algebra. It is also noteworthy that there is a work exclusively devoted to the treatment of this subject. Such a special treatise is a very rare thing in the mathematical literature of the ancient Hindus. This work, entitled Kuṭṭākāraśiromaṇi, is by one Devarāja, a commentator of Āryabhaṭa I.

Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
