In Hinduism
Jyotisha (astronomy and astrology)
: Indian National Science Academy: Annual Report 2015-16 (astronomy)叠丑腻驳腻辫补惫腻丑补 (啶ぞ啶椸ぞ啶さ啶距す) refers to 鈥渁ssimilation of fractional decrease鈥�, as explained in the Kriy膩kramakar墨: a [16th-century] Sanskrit work on mathematics written by 艢a峁卥ara and N膩r膩ya峁嘺.
Jyotisha (啶溹啶啶むた啶�, 箩测辞迟颈峁 or jyotish) refers to 鈥榓stronomy鈥� or 鈥淰edic astrology鈥� and represents the fifth of the six Vedangas (additional sciences to be studied along with the Vedas). Jyotisha concerns itself with the study and prediction of the movements of celestial bodies, in order to calculate the auspicious time for rituals and ceremonies.
Ganitashastra (Mathematics and Algebra)
: archive.org: Hindu Mathematics叠丑腻驳腻辫补惫腻丑补 (啶ぞ啶椸ぞ啶さ啶距す) refers to one of the six classes (箩腻迟颈) of combinations of Bhinna (鈥渇ractions鈥�), which refers to one of the twenty operations (logistics) of 辫腻峁玤补峁噄迟补 (鈥渟cience of calculation which requires the use of writing material鈥攖he board鈥�), according to P峁泃hudakasv膩m墨鈥檚 commentary on the Br膩hmasphu峁璦siddh膩nta by Brahmagupta, a Sanskrit treatise on ancient Indian mathematics (驳补峁噄迟补-艣腻蝉迟谤补) and astronomy from the 7th century.鈥擧indu treatises contain special rules for the reduction of classes [of numbers] (箩腻迟颈) to proper fractions (bhinna). 艢r墨dhara and Mah膩v墨ra each enumerate six 箩腻迟颈s [e.g., 叠丑腻驳腻辫补惫腻丑补], while Brahmagupta gives only five and Bh膩skara II following Skandasena reduces the number to four. The need for the division of fractions into classes arose out of the lack of proper symbolism to indicate mathematical operations.
The rule for 产丑腻驳腻辫补惫腻丑补 is given in all the works on 辫腻峁玤补峁噄迟补. It is the same as that for 产丑腻驳腻苍耻产补苍诲丑补, except that 鈥渁ddition鈥� or 鈥渋ncrease鈥� is replaced by 鈥渟ubtraction鈥� or 鈥渄ecrease鈥� in the enunciation of the rule for 产丑腻驳腻辫补惫腻丑补.
Ganita (啶椸ぃ啶苦い) or Ganitashastra refers to the ancient Indian science of mathematics, algebra, number theory, arithmetic, etc. Closely allied with astronomy, both were commonly taught and studied in universities, even since the 1st millennium BCE. Ganita-shastra also includes ritualistic math-books such as the Shulba-sutras.
