to represent calculations. The Chinese system is also a base-10 system‚ but it has important differences in the way that the numbers are represented. The rod numbers were developed from counting boards‚ which came into use in the fourth century BC. A counting board had squares with rows and columns. Numbers were represented by little rods made from bamboo or ivory. A number was formed in a row with the units in the right-hand column‚ the tens in the next column‚ the hundreds in the next‚ and so on
