In Hinduism
Ganitashastra (Mathematics and Algebra)
Source: Cambridge Core: The ‘Early Medieval’ Origins of India (math)Darśanī (दर्शनी) refers to the “(six) schools of thought”, according to the Sundararājapraśnottara by Sundararāja.—The so-called Kerala School of Mathematics had its beginnings traceable to Ilaṅṅippaḷḷi Mādhavan, who lived in the latter half of the fourteenth century and the early decades of the fifteenth. Works containing his thesis on the infinite series have not survived. We learn of them only from accounts of his successors, especially Nīlakaṇṭha Somayāji and Jyeṣṭhadevan Mādhavan’s disciple, Vaḍaśśeri Parameśvaran, was a prolific writer. [...] That Nīlakaṇṭha Somayāji was a contemporary of the Tamil Nadu astronomer Sundararāja is evident from the Sundararājapraśnottara, which answers a set of questions raised by the latter. Sundararāja referred to the Somayāji as the one versed in the six schools of thought (ṣaḍ-darśanī-pāraṅgata) .
Ganita (गणित) or Ganitashastra refers to the ancient Indian science of mathematics, algebra, number theory, arithmetic, etc. Closely allied with astronomy, both were commonly taught and studied in universities, even since the 1st millennium BCE. Ganita-shastra also includes ritualistic math-books such as the Shulba-sutras.
