Download or read book Classical Mathematics from Al Khwarizmi to Descartes written by Roshdi Rashed and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-21 with total page 768 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book follows the development of classical mathematics and the relation between work done in the Arab and Islamic worlds and that undertaken by the likes of Descartes and Fermat. ‘Early modern,’ mathematics is a term widely used to refer to the mathematics which developed in the West during the sixteenth and seventeenth century. For many historians and philosophers this is the watershed which marks a radical departure from ‘classical mathematics,’ to more modern mathematics; heralding the arrival of algebra, geometrical algebra, and the mathematics of the continuous. In this book, Roshdi Rashed demonstrates that ‘early modern,’ mathematics is actually far more composite than previously assumed, with each branch having different traceable origins which span the millennium. Going back to the beginning of these parts, the aim of this book is to identify the concepts and practices of key figures in their development, thereby presenting a fuller reality of these mathematics. This book will be of interest to students and scholars specialising in Islamic science and mathematics, as well as to those with an interest in the more general history of science and mathematics and the transmission of ideas and culture.

Download or read book The Development of Arabic Mathematics Between Arithmetic and Algebra written by R. Rashed and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An understanding of developments in Arabic mathematics between the IXth and XVth century is vital to a full appreciation of the history of classical mathematics. This book draws together more than ten studies to highlight one of the major developments in Arabic mathematical thinking, provoked by the double fecondation between arithmetic and the algebra of al-Khwarizmi, which led to the foundation of diverse chapters of mathematics: polynomial algebra, combinatorial analysis, algebraic geometry, algebraic theory of numbers, diophantine analysis and numerical calculus. Thanks to epistemological analysis, and the discovery of hitherto unknown material, the author has brought these chapters into the light, proposes another periodization for classical mathematics, and questions current ideology in writing its history. Since the publication of the French version of these studies and of this book, its main results have been admitted by historians of Arabic mathematics, and integrated into their recent publications. This book is already a vital reference for anyone seeking to understand history of Arabic mathematics, and its contribution to Latin as well as to later mathematics. The English translation will be of particular value to historians and philosophers of mathematics and of science.

Book excerpt: Baghdad's 'House of Wisdom' has played a tremendous role in the preservation and advancement of knowledge throughout the world. Today's technological advancements would not have been possible without the foundation that the scientists, astronomers, and philosophers set in this epicenter of world knowledge. Muhammad Al-Khwarizmi was among the most prominent figures to have worked in this Bayt ul Hikma. Known as the father of Algebra, and the grandfather of Mathematics, Al-Khwarizmi's contributions to mathematics are remarkable including introducing the 'Arabic numerals' to the world. The word 'Algorithm' is derived from his name. Additionally, he has made contributions to the field of geography and created a sundial. The story of the six friends continue in this fifth book of the Pioneer Series. A captivating story about Al-Khwarizmi for late elementary and middle school aged students. The paperback and hardback edition of the book includes activities. About the Pioneer Series: Nurturing courage, confidence and love of knowledge in young minds through stories on great individuals and leaders that transformed the world through their wisdom, inventions, discoveries and exploration.

This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Al-Khwarizmi developed the Arabic numerals, based on the Hindu-Arabic numeral system and Indian mathematics. The Western world adopted his numeral system. The term "algorithm" is the invention of Khwarizmi. Algorithm defines the steps for calculation for the solution of a problem. Khwarizmi moved the world from the Greek geometry and created the new mathematics based on Algebra. His Algorithm is used to solve the second order equation. His invention of Algebra and Algorithm paved the way for the age of Enlightenment. Khwarizmi was a philosopher and mathematician. His Persian quest for knowledge, love of truth, and mathematics led him to leave his mark on the humanity.

Additionally, the author has included selections from the western regions of medieval Islam—both North Africa and Spain. The author puts the works into their historical context and includes numerous examples of how mathematics interacted with Islamic society.

Download or read book Algorithms written by Sanjoy Dasgupta and published by McGraw-Hill Higher Education. This book was released on 2006 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text, extensively class-tested over a decade at UC Berkeley and UC San Diego, explains the fundamentals of algorithms in a story line that makes the material enjoyable and easy to digest. Emphasis is placed on understanding the crisp mathematical idea behind each algorithm, in a manner that is intuitive and rigorous without being unduly formal. Features include:The use of boxes to strengthen the narrative: pieces that provide historical context, descriptions of how the algorithms are used in practice, and excursions for the mathematically sophisticated. Carefully chosen advanced topics that can be skipped in a standard one-semester course but can be covered in an advanced algorithms course or in a more leisurely two-semester sequence.An accessible treatment of linear programming introduces students to one of the greatest achievements in algorithms. An optional chapter on the quantum algorithm for factoring provides a unique peephole into this exciting topic. In addition to the text DasGupta also offers a Solutions Manual which is available on the Online Learning Center."Algorithms is an outstanding undergraduate text equally informed by the historical roots and contemporary applications of its subject. Like a captivating novel it is a joy to read." Tim Roughgarden Stanford University

Download or read book A History of Mathematics written by Victor J. Katz and published by Pearson. This book was released on 2023-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This textbook grew out of the conviction that both prospective school teachers of mathematics and prospective college teachers of mathematics need a background in history to teach the subject more effectively. It is therefore designed for junior or senior mathematics majors who intend to teach in college or high school, and it concentrates on the history of those topics typically covered in an undergraduate curriculum or in elementary or high school. Because the history of any given mathematical topic often provides excellent ideas for teaching the topic, there is sufficient detail in each explanation of a new concept for the future (or present) teacher of mathematics to develop a classroom lesson or series of lessons based on history. In fact, many of the problems ask readers to develop a particular lesson. My hope is that students and prospective teachers will gain from this book a knowledge of how we got here from there, a knowledge that will provide a deeper understanding of many of the important concepts of mathematics"--
