Not doubting these points, but you should always cite peer-reviewed or otherwise verified sources. It makes all the difference between a fact and an opinion. This is especially true when contradicting a widely held belief. Without a verifiable source, these are just "interesting hypotheses".
- drieddust 6y agoI am glad you asked, here are the references. 1. Please read "Liber Abaci". It is right there in the prologue section. Hard to find a free copy of this link hence posting a link to tweet[1] with screenshot of the relevent page. You can also cross verify with Italian version on archive.org[2] 2. Same story repeat itself with Indian numbers and algorithms.[3][4] [1] https://twitter.com/TIinExile/status/1198526477026807809 https://twitter.com/TIinExile/status/1198526477026807809 [2] https://archive.org/details/LiberAbaci/page/n5/mode/2up https://archive.org/details/LiberAbaci/page/n5/mode/2up [3] https://twitter.com/TIinExile/status/1180777105778307072 https://twitter.com/TIinExile/status/1180777105778307072 [4] http://kutubltd.com/book-details.aspx?CID=11&ID=30591 http://kutubltd.com/book-details.aspx?CID=11&ID=30591
