Published: July 30, 2021 at 7:27 am It is impossible today to imagine a world without what are known as Hindu-Arabic numerals. These nine symbols or digits (1 to 9) and zero (0) – crucially, together with the system of arranging them in place value – are at the very heart of so much of modern life. Without them there would be no computers and no space travel. Indeed, there would be precious little science, technology or medicine of any kind, to say nothing of mathematics itself. Advertisement If mathematics is the universal language of science, then Hindu-Arabic numerals and place-value notation are what make that language fluent and indispensable. Each of us uses numbers all of the time, without even thinking about where they came from or what we would do without them. So it may come as a revelation to discover that these numerals were relatively unknown in Europe until the 12th century, and then not widely adopted until well into the 15th century.
