EULER'S IDENTITY & INVENTION / INNOVATION



We had shared about Euler's Identity and the reason for naming our Analytics unit as Pie Analytics. That identity is a great example for how innovations or inventions tend to be a build up of what we know.

Do you know?
Digits 1 to 10, the Decimal or Base 10 system, is also called the Hindu-Arabic numeral system. The reason being that, as per historical dating of records, the modern decimal system originated in India and the Arabian world. The number system during the course of centuries evolved as can be seen in the below Sarcone's table.



We will see a historical account of various pieces of Euler's Identity, what was the basis for the modern numbering system, and how Euler's Identity was a finding coming out of centuries of assimilation of information. This story will be an evolving one over a period of time.
