  1.  @AWellRestedDog  I agree - too fast. [Perhaps limits were made on the required length of your (excellent) video.] So, I used the video Settings to decrease the speed to 75% and it was just right for me. Perhaps suggest this trick in the description of the video. I read once an ebook about algebra's history; this video gave me the same sense of satisfaction. Thank you.

  2. Western-centric thought and closed-mindedness at its finest, eh. :^/ Arab, Greek and European scholars might have had a reason to be unaware of India's contributions. We'd do well with a new Renaissance including vedic literature as well as medieval Indian science. < vedicheritage.gov.in/science/ > I don't see it happening, however; our civilization is spiraling into a new Dark Age with science being manipulated to control rather than inform the willfully iggernant, Tik-Tok-ing masses. The "woke" nonsense is a circus sideshow like "reality television". :^( India (and others) would do well to preserve the ancient texts, transcribe them and encode them onto DNA memory or 5-D glass memory.

  3. Perhaps India's math students should be reminded about Namagiri Thayar and her part in Ramanujan's inspirations. With the calculus every little bit helps. :^)

  4. I suggest that 3.14... is a piece of cake, in comparison.
