but they were known to many mathematicians who preceded him. The 4th century B.C.

A more general binomial theorem and the so-called "Pascal’s triangle" were known in the 10th-century A.D. to Indian mathematician Halayudha and Persian mathematician Al-Karaji‚ and in the 13th century to Chinese mathematician Yang Hui‚ who all derived similar
