@goldenagesdiscovered: 🔢 The math behind your smartphone was invented in Baghdad in 820 AD - here's the shocking story of how Islamic scholars created algebra while Europe was still counting on fingers. In this video, we explore how Al-Khwarizmi revolutionized mathematics at Baghdad's House of Wisdom and discover why his innovations remained incomprehensible to Europeans for 400 years. You'll learn how Arabic "al-jabr" became "algebra" and why algorithms power everything from GPS to Netflix. 📚 FASCINATING FACTS COVERED: * How Al-Khwarizmi invented symbolic mathematics in 9th century Baghdad * Why European mathematicians couldn't understand abstract thinking * The Arabic origins of "algebra" and "algorithm" * How Islamic decimal calculations outpaced Roman numerals by centuries #GoldenAge #IslamicGoldenAge #Algebra #Baghdad #Medieval

Islamic scholars gave us a legacy of wisdom,, medicine, stars, math, philosophy. All rooted in God’s command: seek knowledge, uplift humanity, protect nature. Knowledge isn’t just power, it’s light.

It has nothing to do with islam because Baghdad at that time was open to Greek and byzantine cultures, and that abbasid Khalifas allowed for free translation of foreign books and acceptance of foreign science, that's why Baghdad thrived despite the fact that the abbasids were far away from islam.

In China:The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art (c. 1st century BCE–1st century CE): China’s earliest mathematical text included methods for solving systems of linear equations ("fangcheng shu") and operations with negative numbers ("zhengfu shu"), centuries ahead of the West. Techniques like "matrix-style elimination" resembled modern Gaussian elimination. Song-Yuan Dynasty "Tianyuan Shu" (13th century): Mathematicians like Li Zhi (Li Ye) and Zhu Shijie developed methods to set up equations using an unknown ("heavenly element," or tian yuan), solving higher-degree equations (e.g., quartics). Zhu’s Jade Mirror of the Four Unknowns even explored systems of polynomial equations, nearing the symbolic sophistication of Arabic algebra. Numerical Methods: Qin Jiushao’s "Horner-like method" for solving polynomial equations predated William Horner’s work by over 500 years.

are you serious.. Archimides was a Greek mathematician long before the time period you are talking about. 280 BC
