Some Links and Materials on Hindu (Indian) Mathematics and Culture

Here is a map of India.

Here is a Sanskrit poem with an English translation.

Here is a discussion of Aryabhata's astronomical numbers.

Here is a Mathematica notebook demonstrating Brahmagupta's method of samasa for generating solutions of the so-called Pell Equation.
