Ancient India Technology In ancient Indian mathematics was known by the general name of Ganita‚ which included arithmetic‚ geometry‚ algebra‚ astronomy and astrology. It was Aryabhatta‚ who gave a new direction to trigonometry. The decimal system too was an innovation of India. By the third century B.C. mathematics‚ astronomy and medicine began to develop separately. In the field of mathematics ancient Indians made three distinct contributions‚ the notation system‚ the decimal system and the use

The construction of a fundamental understanding of numeration and place value concepts forms the foundation for all additional branches of mathematics (Booker‚ et al.‚ 2010). Computational processes and patterns of thinking require a clear understanding of these concepts‚ as they underpin the learning and use of mathematics (Booker et al.‚ 2010). Developing mathematical thinking from an early age is extremely important in establishing students understanding of number concepts. Clements (2001‚ p271)
