Ganitashastra (Mathematics and Algebra)
: archive.org: Hindu Mathematics1) 顿峁涐笉丑补 (啶︵啶�) or 鈥渇irm鈥� is another name for niccheda (鈥渉aving no divisor鈥�) or nirapavarta (鈥渋rreducible鈥�), according to the principles of B墨jaga峁噄ta (鈥渁lgebra鈥� or 鈥榮cience of calculation鈥�), according to Ga峁噄ta-艣膩stra, ancient Indian mathematics and astronomy.鈥擺Preliminary Operations]:鈥擨t has been remarked by most of the writers that in order that an equation of the form [by - ax = 卤c or by + ax = 卤c] may be solvable, the two numbers a and b must not have a common divisor; for, otherwise, the equation would be absurd, unless the number c had the same common divisor. So before the rules adumbrated hereafter can be applied, the numbers a, b, c must be made prime (诲峁涐笉丑补=firm, niccheda=having no divisor, nirapavarta=irreducible) to each other.
2) 顿峁涐笉丑补 (啶︵啶�) or 顿峁涐笉丑补ku峁弓aka refers to the 鈥渃onstant pulveriser鈥�, according to the principles of B墨jaga峁噄ta.鈥擳he equation [by = ax 卤 1] generally called by the name of 蝉迟丑颈谤补办耻峁弓补办补 or the 鈥渃onstant pulveriser鈥� (from sthira, meaning constant, steady). P峁泃h奴dakasv膩m墨 (860) sometimes designates it also as 诲峁涐笉丑补ku峁弓aka (from 诲峁涐笉丑补 = firm). But that name disappeared from later Hindu algebras because the word 诲峁涐笉丑补 was employed by later writers as equivalent to niccheda (having no divisor) or nirapavarta (irreducible). The origin of the name 鈥渃onstant pulveriser鈥� has been explained by P峁泃h奴dakasv膩m墨 as being due to the fact that the interpolator (卤 1) is here invariable.
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.
