Number systems and Stevin's decimals | Math History | NJ Wildberger
We review some of the development of number systems from the ancient Greeks, followed by the Indian and then Arabic development of our Hindu-Arabic numeral system. Then we focus on the new directions forged by the European mathematicians of the 15th and 16th centuries, culminating in the w

Complex numbers and curves | Math History | NJ Wildberger
In the 19th century, the study of algebraic curves entered a new era with the introduction of homogeneous coordinates and ideas from projective geometry, the use of complex numbers both on the curve and at infinity, and the discovery by the great German mathematician B. Riemann that topolo

Number theory and algebra in Asia (a) | Math History | NJ Wildberger
After the later Alexandrian mathematicians Ptolemy and Diophantus, Greek mathematics went into decline and the focus shifted eastward. This lecture discusses some aspects of Chinese, Indian and Arab mathematics, in particular the interest in number theory: Pell's equation, the Chinese rema

Simple groups, Lie groups, and the search for symmetry II | Math History | NJ Wildberger
This is the second video in this lecture on simple groups, Lie groups and manifestations of symmetry. During the 19th century, the role of groups shifted from its origin in number theory and the theory of equations to its role in describing symmetry in geometry. In this video we talk abou

What is the definition of scientific notation
👉 Learn about scientific notations. Scientific notation is a convenient way of writing very large or very small numbers. A number written in scientific notation is of the form a * 10^n where a is the first non-zero number between 1 and 10, (1 included) and n is the number of digits up to t
