This document discusses the history of permutations and combinations formulas in India. It contains four quotes from foreign experts praising Indian mathematics. It then presents several Sanskrit verses from texts like Lilavati and Brihat-Samhita that describe early formulas for permutations and combinations. The document questions whether all historians have accurately credited the origins of the general nCr formula, suggesting it may have been discovered much earlier in India than traditionally thought.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

History of Mathematics in India
1. Module 3: Permutations and
combinations.
Formula for nCr
Modern Mathematics in old
Sanskrit books
2. The formula
• nCr = n!/(r!(n-r)!)
• nCr is the number of ways of choosing r
objects from n objects.
• N! is the product of all integers from 1 to N.
3. Three parts of this lecture.
• Part 1. Four quotes from foreign experts.
• Part 2. Four or five Sanskrit passages.
• Part 3. Four remarks.
5. First Quote
• “The Hindus solved problems in interest,
discount, partnership, alligation, summation
of arithmetical and geometric series, and
devised rules for determining the numbers of
combinations and permutations. It may be
added here that chess, the profoundest of all
games, had its origin in India.
- F.Cajori.
6. F.Cajori

7. About the book
• A History of Mathematics
Book by Florian Cajori
• Many of the earliest
books, particularly those
dating back to the 1900s
and before, are now
extremely scarce and
increasingly expensive.
• Published: 1893
• Author: Florian Cajori
9. Second Quote
• “I ran across the algorithm last year while I
was reading the Lilavati, a treatise on
arithmetic, written about 850 years ago in
India… This algorithm is simple, ancient,
efficient and convenient…. Why isn’t this
better known?”
- Mark Jason Dominus.
10. Main idea of the algorithm
• (n+1)C(k+1) = (n+1)(nCk)/(k+1).
• The University of discourse
• www.prover.com

13. Severes Sebokht
• Seboukt of Nisibis. was a Syrian scholar and
bishop who was born in Syria in 575 and died
in 667. A member of Syrian orthodox church.
• His major legacy is the transmission of the
Indian number system to the Islamic world. He
was perhaps the first Syrian to mention the
Indian number system.
14. Fourth Quote
• “I will omit all the discussion of Indians,
people not the same as Syrians, of their subtle
discoveries in astronomy, discoveries that are
more ingenious than those of the Greeks and
the Babylonians; calculations which surpass
description”.

20. Mahviracharya
• Mahāvīra was a 9th-
century Jain
mathematician from
Mysore, India. He was the
author of
Gaṇitasārasan̄graha,
which revised the
Brāhmasphuṭasiddhānta.
He was patronised by the
Rashtrakuta king
Amoghavarsha. He
separated astrology from
mathematics.
21. Example
• 10 C 4=?
• 10.9.8.7/1.2.3.4 = 5040/24 = 210.
• 1,2,3,4.
2,3,4,5.
1,3,5,7.
.
.
.
22. Two formulas are same.
• nCr = n!/(r!(n-r)!)
• ncr = n(n-1)…(n-r+1)/1.2….r
23. Lilavati
• स्थानान्तं एकादि चयाङ्क घातः
संख्या विभेिा ननयतकः स्युरङ्कक ः |
• If n (<10) is the number of digits, take the product
of all terms in the progression (of integers)
starting from 1 ending with n. This gives the total
number of integers with n digits, where digits are
distinct elements of a given n-subset of {1,2,…9}.
• Eg. How many four digit numbers are there
where the digits are 2,3,7,9? Answer:24.
24. From Brihatsamhita
• पूिेण पूिेण गतेन युक्तं
स्थानं विनान््यं प्रििन्न्त संख्याम ् |
इच्छा विकलपकः क्रमशोz भभनीय
नीते ननिृवतः पुनरन्यनीनतः || B.S.77-22.
Write the numbers 1,2,3,…,n in the direct order and
in reverse order below and retain only according
to the requirement (as desired). The result is ncr
= n(n-1)…(n-r+1)/1.2….r
- Translation by Prof.S.Madhavan.

26. Brihat-Samhita
An important contribution of Varahamihira is the
encyclopedic Brihat-Samhita. It covers wide ranging
subjects of human interest, including astrology,
planetary movements, eclipses, rainfall, clouds,
architecture, growth of crops, manufacture of perfume,
matrimony, domestic relations, gems, pearls, and
rituals. The volume expounds on gemstone evaluation
criterion found in the Garuda Purana, and elaborates
on the sacred Nine Pearls from the same text. It
contains 106 chapters and is known as the "great
compilation”.
27. Difficulty
• न गुणो न हरो न कृ नतः
न घनः पृष्टः तथावप िुष्टानाम ् |
गविित गणक बटूनां
स्यात् पातोz िश्यं अङ्कपाशेz न्स्मन् ||
Not multiplication, not division, not squaring,
not cubing, but it is permutation &
combination that certainly pulls down the
wicked and arrogant boys in mathematics.
28. An example to apply the formula
• षणणां चावप रसानां
कषाय नतक्ताम्ल कटुक लिणानाम ् |
मधुररसेन युतानाम ्
भेिान् कथयाधुना गणक ||
O mathematician! How many taste-
combinations are there, formed from one or
more of the six tastes, bitter, pungent, sour,
hot, saline and sweet? Now tell me.
30. Reach of Mahavira’s book
• 870 A.D. Sanskrit book written by Mahavira.
• 1050 A.D. Telugu version by Pavaluri Mallana.
• 1912 A.D. English Translation by Rangacharya
• 1963 A.D. Hindi translation by L.C.Jain.
• 2000 A.D.Kannadatranslation, Padmavatamma
• 2003 A.D. Telugu translation, Telugu Academy.
31. Scene changes to history of these
formulas
• Part 2 ends.
• Seen in part2:
Two verses from Gan. S.S.
One verse from Br.samhita
Two verses from Lilavati.
• Part 3 starts.
• Four questions:
Do all historians agree?
Who discovered it first?
How was it in pre-
Christian era?
Were there improved
formulae later in
Sanskrit?
32. Quote
• “The general formula for nCr has wrongly
been attributed to Herigone by Prof.D.E.Smith
in his History of Mathematics published in
1925. Ironically, thirteen years earlier,
Prof.Smith had written a foreword to
Mahavira’s Ganitasarsangraha published in
1912. The moral of the story is that a
historian, especially of science, should have an
unbiased mind, as also a thorough consistency
in his presentations and assessments.”

35. Who discovered the formula for nCr
first?
• Mahaviracharya in 9th century? (He may be
the first to state it so clearly.) “The credit of
giving out this general formula for nCr for the
first time in the history of world mathematics
goes uniquely to Mahavira”- Dr.S.Balachandra
Rao.
• Varahamihira in 5th & 6th century? (May be.)
• Known in India still earlier? (May be. Certainly
some particular cases were known in 200B.C)
