story of zero

In this time science specially mathematics, orienting to West country ( Europe and America). What most popular of us hear as Arab Moslem mathematics having contribution to growth of mathematics is Al - Khawarizmi, known as “algebra father”, introducing number zero ( 0) and translator of masterpiece - masterpiece of yunani ancient.

Number story zero
Number concept zero have expanded since epoch of Babilonia and Ancient Greek, which is at that moment interpreted as no from something. Number concept zero and nature of - in character continue to expand from time to time. Till [at] century to - 7, Brahmagupta a India mathematics introduce some nature of numbers zero. Nature of - in character is an number when summed with zero is remain to, that way also a number if/when multiplied with zero will become zero. This matter continue to become the this topic of research at that moment, even until 200tahun later;then. For example year 830, Mahavira ( India) assure result - result of Brahmagupta and even express that " a number divided by zero is remain to". Of course this fatal mistake.
Idea - idea of India mathematics is hereinafter studied by Moslem mathematics and Arab. This Matter happened [at] phase - early stage when mathematics of Al - Accurate Khawarizmi of system is calculation Hindu ( India) depicting system assess place of number entangling number 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. Al - Khawarizmi is which first time introduce usage of number zero as value space in bases ten. and this system is referred is number system denary.

wuuuih, kuliah di UNY, prodi matematik, tapi tulisannya ngebarat begitu. Jadi susah memahaminya. Iya mbak...! kemajuan Eropa barat tidak bisa dipungkiri kalau di baliknya tertimbun cerita tentang kontribusi dari orang-orang pintar muslim. tapi yaah, sejarah hanya tinggal cerita penghibur saja. sekarang kita tak bisa mengangkat kaki lebih tinggi. meski Eropa menindak lanjuti kontribusi Islam itu, bukan berarti itu sesuatu yang salah. mereka, dengan berpijak dari pondasi yang sudah tercipta terus melakukan invensi dan inovasi. Laah kita? sedikit-sedikit cari apa hukumnya. Bagaimana tidak mandul? Harapannya, dengan angka zero yang mbak jelaskan, kita bubuhi satu bilangan di depannya. biar kita-kita tidak berada dalam posisi zero terus-terusan...., sorry.
