For example on page 8 of this book we find that 1x2x3x4x5x6x7x8x9 gives a number 3628800. In the beejaganitha of Indian astronomers a middle number, an integer of this number is accepted as the squareroot of Time. because if we multiply 19 X19 we get 361 , the nearest number to the degrees of a circle 360. 1900x1900=3610000.1910x1910=3648100.Removing the decimals and zeroes it is near to the number of days taken by earth to complete one revolution around sun (364.8),the nearest numebrs taken to comprehend the squareroot of Time in a cyclical function and the number of actual days taken by earth to complete one round. The number we get by multiplying 1 upto 10 in the book (page 8) is between 361 and 364.8 (362.8 being the number equal to 1x2x3x4x5x6x7x8x9x10) Review: Elements of AlgebraUser Review - Ronald Lett - GoodreadsEuler presents in some cases quite refreshing viewpoints on basic algebra, especially in the presentation of several methods that can rarely be found explained with such plain elegance. Quite a valuable read, even for the experienced mathematician. Read full review Related booksOther editions - View allReferences to this bookFrom other books
