Never mind I found the answer! Its zero and algorithm.

Zero and Algorithms

i like how you mixed up your name

Thx

Wait When you say mixed what do you mean?

Thx Ms. Sue

thx

Thanks so much!

Zero and algorithms

zero and alorgmiths

didnt spell right O.O

Just know guys, this question is for a short answer writing thing. I doubt people can do much with the words "Zero and algorithms"

thx guys!

Aryabhata worked on the place value system using letters to signify numbers and stating qualities (Algebra). Brahmagupta introduced the concept of zero to mathematics which stood for nothing.

what computers wouldn't be invented

i are has no idea what a algorithm is! (I seriously don't, tho)

You will be caught if you cheat...

Thanks!

Thx for the answers

Did you know?

Did you know that Indian mathematicians made crucial advances that paved the way for the existence of computers today? Two of these remarkable contributions include the concept of zero and the decimal numeral system. Invented by Indian mathematicians in ancient times, the concept of zero revolutionized mathematics by filling the void between positive and negative numbers, allowing for more complex calculations. Furthermore, Indian mathematicians introduced the decimal numeral system, which employed the use of ten digits and the position of the digits to denote the value. This system, widely used today, made arithmetic operations much simpler, laid the foundation for algorithms, and facilitated the development of early computing devices. Thanks to these achievements, we owe much to the intellectual legacy of Indian mathematicians for the technologies we rely on today.
