Srinivasa Ramanujan was a renowned Indian mathematician born in 1887 in Tamil Nadu, India. He made extraordinary contributions to mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions. Some of his key achievements include formulating the Ramanujan prime, the Ramanujan theta function, and discovering the Ramanujan constant and the Rogers-Ramanujan identities. Despite facing challenges with his education due to poverty, he was a self-taught mathematician and gained recognition after his letter containing his original research and results was received by Professor G.H. Hardy of Trinity College, Cambridge University. Ramanujan worked extensively on elliptic functions, continued fractions, infinite series, and solving cubic and quartic equations
