Pañcarāśika (पञ्चराशिक) refers to the “rule of five”; Cf. 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.—The Hindu name for the Rule of Three terms is trairāśika (“three terms”, hence “the rule of three terms”).—The term rāśi is used in the enumeration of topics of mathematics in the Sthānāṅgasūtra (c. 300 B.C.) (Sūtra 747). There it probably refers to the Rules of Three, Five, Seven, etc.
