His father Mahesvara was as an astrologer‚ who taught him mathematics‚ which he later passed on to his son Loksamudra. Bhaskara II was the head of the astronomical observatory at Ujjain‚ the chief mathematical center of ancient India. It goes to the credit of Varahamihira and Brahmagupta‚ the leading mathematicians

Education has been there since the past times when great thinkers and mathematicians like Aryabhatta and Bhaskaracharya gave the world a new way of learning. Aryabhatta gave the utmost number ‘0’ to this world without which the counting would have never begun. Bhaskaracharya gave trigonometry ratios without which geometry would have been undone.

He failed in English in Intermediate‚ so his formal studies were stopped but his self-study of mathematics continued. He sent a set of 120 theorems to Professor Hardy of Cambridge. As a result he invited Ramanujan to England. Ramanujan showed that any big number can be written as sum of not more than four prime numbers. He showed that how to divide the number into two or more squares or cubes. when

One of these astounding mathematicians was Bhāskara II‚ most commonly known as Bhāskarāchārya meaning Bhāskara The Teacher. Not only was Bhāskara II a mathematician‚ but an astronomer. He is considered a very important role in the arithmetic world‚ and it wouldn’t be much without his contributions. Bhāskara II reached an understanding
