- vilhelm_s 15y agoWikipedia says "Since paper was very expensive, Ramanujan would do most of his work and perhaps his proofs on slate, and then transfer just the results to paper".
- FameofLight 15y agoI want to add here , he use to write on napkins , used paper from patties while in canteen. He use to write on same paper with 4 different pen so that he could save page as much.Most time all thing can go in his head only. He was genius in true sense.
