Do you mean "The Chinese Roots of Linear Algebra"? Can you say something more about it?
- chalst 16y agoYes, which is the name of the book, which is on my to read list, and a website proposal, which I've studied. He documents the linear-algebraic calculations used by Chinese mathematicians in C4th. He's written some Perl scripts that implement these calculations. The website proposal is at http://uts.cc.utexas.edu/~rhart/algebra/ http://uts.cc.utexas.edu/~rhart/algebra/
