Brings to mind what Newton had to say about his achievements 'If I have seen further it is because I have stood on the shoulders of giants'. Our current tools and discoveries would not have been possible without contributions from men like Muhammad al-Khwarizmi and many others who go largely unrecognized.
100%
We should have learned about this genius in the school.
Newton said that to be a jerk. He was insulting Robert Hooke who was short. Newton took Hooke's inverse square law of gravity and used it uncredited.
Actually, newton didn’t even explore gravity. Credit goes to an Iraqi Astronomer and physicist from basra city who called Al-Hasan Ibn Al-Haytham He knew gravity and write about it 600 years before newton !! But nobody says that and it’s not being taught in schools and education.
Wait,, I thought Al Gore invented Algorithms...
People should appreciate a man's work, his ethics were in place, gave credit where it belonged, left his work for us, give credit to him for his contributions and improve upon his work. That's how world works.
That's exactly how it works.

so it was copied from India .. "Hindu art of Reckoning" The algorithm was originally invented by the Indian astronomer-mathematician Āryabhaṭa (476-550 CE) and is described very briefly in his Āryabhaṭīya. Āryabhaṭa did not give the algorithm the name Kuṭṭaka, and his description of the method was mostly obscure and incomprehensible. It was Bhāskara I (c. 600 - c. 680) who gave a detailed description of the algorithm with several examples from astronomy in his Āryabhatiyabhāṣya, who gave the algorithm the name Kuṭṭaka....

They are haughty, foolishly vain, self-conceited, and stolid. They are by nature niggardly in communicating that which they know, and they take the greatest possible care to withhold it from men of another caste among their own people, still much more, of course, from any foreigner. According to their belief, there is no other country on earth but theirs, no other race of man but theirs, and no created beings besides them have any knowledge or science whatsoever...”

Al kharazmi balanced the algebra equation, quadratic, and found solutions using algorithm similar to the one computer program uses to find solutions, finding solution by balancing the two sides of an equation. This is in his book on Algebra Algebr Al Muqabla. Muslim mathematician discovered the basis of modern day mathematics, their contributed immensely to trigonometry, geometry, algebra. Ratio and proportions. Even Fibonacci is a byproduct of the house of wisdom. Mongols burned Muslim libraries, their actual contribution far exceeds what Muslims are given credit for. Renaissance followed the Muslim golden age.
While it is true that Mongols burned libraries, the crusaders burned far more libraries, while the Catholic Church forbade learning and study that contradicted the teachings of the Church. Galelio and others like him had to hide their real conclusions on fear of horrible torture and death for heresy. Good and rather historical movie is “Name of the Rose.” Bottom line is that the greatest damage to learning, knowledge, and relations between Islam and Christianity was done by the Crusaders who raped, pillaged, murdered, tortured, and burned their way through Europe to occupy the Holy Land.
@@richardberryhill718When we are taking a short and limited glimpse into the history of burning libraries we have to look at the library of Alexandria. And without denying the contributions of the middle east (Mesopotamia and Persia) to writing and mathematics the library of Alexandria was burned down by moslem troops after asking their Mullahs how to deal with it. Their answer was: „If the books contradict the Quran you burn them and if they say the same as the Quran they are superfluous, so burn them too!“ This is how most of the knowledge of old age was lost.
@@berndheiden7630 The account of Muslims burning the library is almost certainly incorrect, as incorrect as, possibly, my account. Checking with the Brains of the Universe, Chat GPT says it is not clear who burned it, perhaps Ceaser, perhaps Aurelian in 270 CE. But the fact remains that the immense knowledge of the early Islamic community was unequaled, but suppressed by the Catholic Church, and the horrible actions of the Crusaders created an enemy in Islam that is the foundation for the problems we now face.
Not Mughal Uzbek bro Uzbek 🇺🇿
@@berndheiden7630The fate of that great wealth of books remains provocative and controversial. For centuries the main point of contention was whether or not the library (or libraries-as two sites existed) survived until the Arab conquest of Alexandria in the 7th century. In the 21st century, however, the topic has cooled down, and there is growing agreement among serious scholars that both libraries had both perished long before the Arab conquest. Scholars further believe that there is enough evidence to show that the destruction of the two libraries occurred at different times. In 642 the Arab general ʿAmr ibn al-ʿĀṣ conquered Egypt and occupied Alexandria. The events of the early Arab conquests were recorded by historians from several sides, including Arabs, Copts, and Byzantines. For more than five centuries after the conquest, there was no mention of and not a single reference to any accident related to an Alexandrian library under the Arabs. Suddenly, early in the 13th century appears an account reported by Ibn al-Qifṭī and other Arab authors describing how ʿAmr had burned the books of the ancient Library of Alexandria. The story has a fictitious flavour and has repeatedly been criticized, notably by 18th-century British historian Edward Gibbon, and it has since been proved to be a 12th-century fabrication. Two questions arise from that circumstance: What happened in the 12th century that suddenly aroused interest in the fate of the Library of Alexandria and further led to an accusation that ʿAmr was the culprit? Why, after a total silence of more than eight centuries after the destruction of the Serapeum, should Ibn al-Qifṭī be so anxious to record such a story in full detail?
Thank you, Muhammad al-Khawarizmi.

The video mentions Al-Khwarizmi's Persian origin while neglecting his affiliation with the Abbasid Caliphate, it's important to highlight that his discoveries were significantly supported by the Abbasid Caliphate, notably by Caliph Al-Mamun. Al-Khwarizmi's pivotal role in leading Bait Alhikma, the scientific institution under the Abbasid Caliphate, contributed immensely to his achievements. While acknowledging his Persian origin is relevant, it's equally crucial to recognize the context of his work within the Arabic Abbasid Caliphate.

What is clear is that the DISCOVERER OF THE NUMBER ZERO WAS NOT Al Khwarizmi (in fact he was a SYIAH adherent, which some of moslems say is NOT ISLAM) but an INDIAN SCIENTIST named Brahmagupta. The concept of zero has actually existed since ancient times. Zero, which represents nothingness, was realized by the Babylonians even hundreds of years before Christ. It's just that they are confused about how to express it in a symbol. In the 7th century AD, a famous Indian mathematician named Brahmagupta carried out further studies on numbers. One of them is the number zero. It was Brahmagupta who then gave the symbol zero as 0. He also developed the rules for operating numbers with zero. SO ALKHWARIZMI IS NOT THE INVENTOR OF THE NUMBER ZERO!

@@darkfrozen1860 I'm just stating the truth. It must be acknowledged that Al Khwarizmi made contributions to the field of algebra, but he was not the inventor of the number zero or binary numbers. so why don't we just state the truth? there is no statement that I hate Islam.

@@darkfrozen1860 the title is not fully correct. There are another inventors before him that have big contribution too. We must declare, admit, and appreciate those people as well. Some people, only read the title, and not watch the full video. And i think, the title can make misperception.
His full name is Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī. Thank you for highlighting his accomplishments. He was a Muslim and lived in Bhagdad during what some call the Golden Age of Islam. The west forgets the contributions of the East and of the Muslim world made to the modern world, the age of information. Videos like this can illuminate so much more.

Yes, I can understand for instance parents being proud of their children if the children achieved something as a result of the good education they got home or somethin like this, but I cannot feel proud being a human only because Einstein discovered the Relativity Theory for instance. If I would be proud of that, then I should also be ashamed at the same time for being a human because of a lot of other people (for instance being contemporary with Putin or other dictators, only to give an example). Therefore I cannot see this kind of being proud as a positive thing for the evoution of our species. In contrary, this kind of pride will always be used mostly to exacerbate nationalist and/or religious feelings of people that otherway are of no good for this planet. And we can see this very well in a large number of other comments of this video.

That's not true, please read a bit of history. Algorithms and algebra have a history that pre-dates him by centuries. Arithmetic algorithms, such as a division algorithm, were used by ancient Babylonian mathematicians c. 2500 BC and Egyptian mathematicians c. 1550 BC. Greek mathematicians later used algorithms in 240 BC in the sieve of Eratosthenes for finding prime numbers, and the Euclidean algorithm for finding the greatest common divisor of two numbers. Algebra was around for along time before, he made contributions and gave it the name that we now use...

@@theastronomer5800 even though history of algorithms predates al-Khwarizmi The attribution of the invention of algorithms to al-Khwarizmi is due to his significant contributions to mathematics and computation during the Islamic Golden Age. Al-Khwarizmi's work, particularly his book "Al-Kitab al-Mukhtasar fi Hisab al-Jabr wal-Muqabala" (The Compendious Book on Calculation by Completion and Balancing), laid the foundation for algebra and introduced systematic methods for solving linear and quadratic equations. The word "algorithm" itself is derived from the Latinized version of his name, "Algoritmi." While algorithms and mathematical methods existed before al-Khwarizmi, his systematic approach to problem-solving and his influence on the development of algebraic techniques have led to the association of algorithms with his name.
First of all, no need for the snide tone, not everyone's read everything, we all have stuff we could learn. Secondly, Al Khawarizmi came up with the concept of an algorithm not a specific algorithm@@theastronomer5800
such an amazing man. you can also see from his works that he was influenced by his religion, islam, in his studies. he was determined to understand the nature of existence. with islam's encouragement in order to seek knowledge, he never stood back.

Indian Mathematics is predominantly algorithmic. In fact, the very word “Algorithm” is derived from the name of Al Khwarizmi (c. 9th Century) whose works played a crucial role in the transmission of Indian algorithmic procedures to the Islamic and later to the Western world. We shall discuss a few selected algorithms that are representative of the Indian mathematical tradition from the ancient Śulbasūtrās to the medieval texts of the Kerala School. In particular, we shall outline some of the constructions described in the Śulbasūtrās, the algorithm for computing the cube-root given by Āryabhaṭa (c.499) and the kuṭṭaka and cakraväla algorithms for solving linear and quadratic indeterminate equations as discussed by Āryabhaṭa (c.499), Brahmagupta (c.628), Jayadeva (prior to the 11th century) and Bhāskara (c.1150). We shall also discuss the efficient algorithms for accurate computation of Π and the sine function due to Mādhava (c.14th century) as discussed in the texts of the Kerala School of Mathematics and Astronomy.
The Hindu number system is called ‘Arabic Numbers’ because 🤦♂️ Europeans learnt it from Arabs and NOT because Arabs invented it.

Without great contributions by polymaths in Bagdad, Cordoba and Persia during golden age of Islamic civilizations, The age of discovery and scientific revolutions would not have taken place in Europe. Most of the respected books in Mathematics and Computer Science still mentions Al-Khwarizmi within the first few pages. From "Algorithms" by Dasgupta, Vazirani (page 2): "Al-Khwarizmi, a man who lived in Bagdad in the ninth century wrote a textbook in Arabic. Al-Khwarizmi laid out the basic methods for adding, multiplying and dividing numbers -- even extracting square roots and calculating digits of π. These procedures were precise, unambiguous , mechanical, efficient, correct -- in short, they were **algorithms**, a term coined to honor the wise man after the decimal system was finally adopted in Europe, many centuries later." From "Artificial Intelligence, A modern Approach" by Peter Norvig (page 9): The word algorithm comes from **Muhammad Ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi**, a 9th century mathematician, whose writings introduced Arabic numerals and algebra to Europe." From "Mathematics and history " by John Stillwell: The word "algebra" comes from the Arabic word "al-jabr" meaning "restoring". It passed into bonesetting through the book "Al-jabr w'al muqabala" of al-khwarizmi in 830 C.E, a work on the solution of equations. Al-khwarizmi's own name has given us hte word "algorithm", so his work had a lasting impact on mathematics , even though its content was quite elementary.

@@firingmachine9089 weird term that is, 'birth'. Nevertheless, there was no 'hindustan', use the proper term when referring to the ancient India. As stated, you are idiot if you state 'mathematics was invented' that term itself is a paradox. Now to continue onwards, I would like to educate you only in the topic you mentioned: Islam was never born, it is a belief in One God, as that is what Islam it'self teaches, that it is a belief in One God that possess certain additional elements meant to fit civilizations of each prophets. As the essence of 'Islam' itself dates to pre-historic humans as archeological evidence states that belief in One God with no religions being able to be discovered, had been found. And in 'Islam', polytheism has existed from the time of Qabil (son of Adam alai), so the older you state Hinduism is, the more it proves that Islam is true. 🤷

Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Musa Al-Khwarizmi is a Muslim mathematician, astronomer, and geographer. He is called Abu Jaafar.
"Al Khwarizmi" soon became the name of his writings (scrolls at 780 CE...), certainly the most advanced math treaty of its time. Arguably, Al Khwarizmi gave birth to math. Much later, when his book reached Europe, three of the general concepts were named after the book, hence "Algarismo" in some Latin languages (for each numeric character in a number), "algebra" and "algorithm". While writing this, It looks like English has no word to differentiate "number" (any number) and "number" (each indo-arabic character within a number) - or am I missing a word? Today's "digit" is the closest, but that likely started with modern use of typewriters where one finger (digit) pushed corresponds to a single imprint = a single character = one lead "type" imprint, in printing press terminology, .
Nah He didn't give birth to math. You're just too proud about his achievements but his achievements have nothing to do with all of you.
@@Im-not-a-troll All of us, humankind, benefited from his achievements. All of us, humankind, are proud of his work. It is likely that he used previous science, but I am not sufficiently informed about it. For the Extended Middle Eastern Civilization (Middle East, Greece, Rome, Europe and its ex-colonies in the west), his book was the most important and initial source of modern math.

Aristotle, Pythagoras, Archimedes, Newton, Hypatia, Euclid, Euler, Neumann, Playfair, Maxwell, Turing, Lovelace, Einstein and Hilbert. Who all range in similar, if not higher importance to the field of mathmetics. Off coarse his research is revolutionairy, but he is far from the Greatest. I would argue either Aristotle and his works or Newton and his investigations are by far the most important.
@@ashokafulcrum4795 Discover the most important thing in science in general. So it is the greatest. Aristotle is more distinguished as a philosopher than a scientist. Also, I don't know why you are so angry
@@mohammadbaqer8305 it isn't anger, like, why should I be angry. I simply disagree with OP,s statement. Al-Kwarizmi's works were revolutionary and I certainly don't downplay that part. But given the circumstance how it affected the way we formed our entire understanding of this world around the theory, his works amounted to little for centuries. Only in the hands of man like Euler (Trigonometric functions), Newton (Mechanics), Einstein (Theory of Relativity) and Leeuwenhoek (Microbiological studies), did Al-Kwarizmi's work finally gain recognition as a means to an end. Hence why I stated Newton as more important, because Newton and his works surrounding the laws of Physics, especially the correlation between matter, motion and force, revolutionize the way we view and observe the abstract phenomena in todays world. Which in turn altered the way we viewed our universe, our solar system, our own planet and the entire history of this universe. Aristotle as a second,. because he was philosopher first and foremost, but his book Organon (which encompasses 6 books), is the foundation of Reason, and established the methods of logical argument that up until the 18th century were vital in professional investigation. Because Organon contained a dialectic and Methods that were concerned in coming to a conclusion to the means of observation. Most later philosphers and scientists always emphasized Aristotle school of thought in their own process to infer.

“Al-Khwarizmi’s scientific achievements were at best mediocre, but they were uncommonly influential,” says Toomer in the Dictionary of Scientific Biography. The concept of algorithm (sequential steps in a calculation) was hardly the invention of al- Khwārizmī, the idea goes back to practically all ancient civilizations that did Math. The word "algorithm" just comes from the Latin title of a book al- Khwārizmī wrote in Arabic about Hindu-Arabic numerals; the Latin translation of the book title was Algoritmi de numero Indorum (in English Al-Khwarizmi on the Hindu Art of Reckoning). Al- Khwārizmī is hardly responsible for the computer. The real pioneer of modern algebra and of algorithms was Diophantus with his famous 13 books called Arithmetica that (600 years before al- Khwārizmī) introduced symbolic manipulations. Al- Khwārizmī used only words in sentences to contribute fairly minor results about what amounts to certain 1st and 2ond order equations.

Not just Algorthms but also the numbers 1,2,3, 0 ! Persian mathematician Muhammad al-Khwarizmi who was born way back in around AD780 and lived in Baghdad. In todays terms would have got 2 Nobel Prizes. On the Calculation with Hindu Numerals, written about 820, was principally responsible for spreading the Hindu-Arabic numeral system throughout the Middle East and Europe. It was translated into Latin as Algoritmi de numero Indorum. Al-Khwārizmī, rendered as (Latin) Algoritmi, led to the term "algorithm". Less known fact : Later it was Fibonacci popularized the Indo-Arabic numeral system in the Western world primarily through his composition in 1202 of Liber Abaci (Book of Calculation). Fibonacci introduced the so-called modus Indorum (method of the Indians), today known as the Hindu-Arabic numeral system, with ten digits including a zero and positional notation.
You keep saying "Indo Arabic". There was no "Arabic" contributions to the decimal number system at all. It is the Hindu number system. Period. Just because someone translated a piece of work doesn't make him/her the author. Leaving aside the fact that al-Khwarizm wasn't even an Arab. European and Islamic ignorance and idea-stealing without giving due credit at its finest.

Interestingly The ancient Indian “Bakhshali” manuscript, which has been carbon dated to 3rd century CE, is an ancient Hindu treatise on Arithmetic and Algebra. The Algebraic problems deal with simultaneous equations, quadratic equations, arithmetic geometric progressions & quadratic indeterminate equations. “Bakhshali” isn’t earliest Indian Algebraic treatise. Early Algebra is found in “Shulba Sutras” (Sutra in Indian literary traditions refers to an aphorism or a collection of aphorisms in the form of a manual or, more broadly, a condensed manual or text.) dating back to at least 800 BC. Traditional Algebra reached its pinnacle in the works of Mathematicians and Astronomers of India like Aryabhata & Bhaskara. What makes Bakhshali special is it offers mathematical proof to its theories. Henry Thomas Colebrooke was a historian and Mathematicians. Writing in 1817, Colebrook came to the conclusion that Khwarizmi owed his Algebra to ancient Indian Vedic Hindus. After carefully examining the works of Khawarizmi and ancient Hindu mathematical texts, Colebrooke concludes: “The inevitable conclusion is that Khawarizmi, being conversant with the sciences of Hindus, must have learnt Algebra from Hindus” Another European Mathematician, Pietro Cossali also came to the same conclusion after diligent research. He says: “Khwarizmi was skilled in Indian tongue and fond of Indian matters. He translated Indian works He was first instructor of Mμslims in Algebra” Cossali continues “Not having taken Algebra from Greeks, Khwarizmi must have either invented it himself or taken it from Indians. The latter (taking Algebra from Indians) seems more probable”
When I was at school my teacher used to call Al kharazmy because I am good at math and from Uzbekistan thanks for everyone for good comments
Indian Mathematics is predominantly algorithmic. In fact, the very word “Algorithm” is derived from the name of Al Khwarizmi (c. 9 th Century) whose works played a crucial role in the transmission of Indian algorithmic procedures to the Islamic and later to the Western world. We shall discuss a few selected algorithms that are representative of the Indian mathematical tradition from the ancient Śulbasūtrās to the medieval texts of the Kerala School. In particular, we shall outline some of the constructions described in the Śulbasūtrās, the algorithm for computing the cube-root given by Āryabhaṭa (c.499) and the kuṭṭaka and cakraväla algorithms for solving linear and quadratic indeterminate equations as discussed by Āryabhaṭa (c.499), Brahmagupta (c.628), Jayadeva (prior to the 11 th century) and Bhāskara (c.1150). We shall also discuss the efficient algorithms for accurate computation of Π and the sine function due to Mādhava (c.14 th century) as discussed in the texts of the Kerala School of Mathematics and Astronomy.
