Understanding Arabic Algorithms: The Origins and Logic Behind Our Numbers

Dive into the fascinating world of Arabic algorithms, the numerical framework we use daily, stemming from ancient Phoenician merchants. This exploration answers why we call 1 "one," 2 "two," and 3 "three," unraveling the logic behind these designations. Discover how these numbers, depicted through angles, have evolved and were popularized by Arab scholars. With its ancient roots and straightforward beauty, the story of numbers is an essential lesson: it's never too late to learn. Share this knowledge with friends!

  1. The Numbers 1 2 4 013456… 5

  2. The numbers we write are made up of algorithms, (1, 2, 3, 4, etc) called arabic algorithms, to distinguish them from the roman algorithms (I; II; III; IV; etc.). 1 2 4 013456… 5

  3. The arabs popularise these algorithms, but their origin goes back to the phenecian merchants that used them to count and do their commercial contability. 1 2 4 013456… 5

  4. Have you ever asked the question why 1 is “one”, 2 is “two”, 3 is “three”…..? 1 2 4 013456… 5

  5. What is the logic that exist in the arabic algorithms? 1 2 013456… 4 5

  6. Easy, very easy…! There are angles! 1 2 4 013456… 5

  7. Look at these algorithms written in their primitive form and check it up! … 1 2 4 013456… 5

  8. 1 angle 2 angles 1 2 4 013456… 5 3 angles 4 angles

  9. 1 2 5 angles 6 angles 4 5 013456… 7 angles 8 angles

  10. 1 2 4 013456… 5 9 angles

  11. And the most interesting and intelligent of all….. 1 2 4 5 013456…

  12. Zero angle ! 1 2 4 5 013456…

  13. Moral of the story: It is never late to learn! 1 2 4 5 013456…

  14. Share it with your friends……. 1 2 4 013456… 5
