MY PROFILE
My name is Bhagya Shylaja Suresh. I am a student who is studying in 8-I. I am studying in a beautiful school and my school's name is New Indian Model School in Dubai. I have a loving family and have many friends. I was born on September 5, the day of teachers. My ambition is to become a collector. So, this is some information about me.
GET TO KNOW ABOUT THE FAMOUS MATHEMATICIAN
SRINIVASA RAMANUJAN..!!
Many of us know about the great mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan. Why don't we get to know more about him? In this article, I will be sharing some information about Srinivasa Ramanujan...So, let's get started...
π Srinivasa
Ramanujanπ
Srinivasa Ramanujan, (born December 22, 1887, Erode, India died April 26, 1920, Kumbakonam), Indian mathematician whose contributions to the theory of numbers include pioneering discoveries of the properties of the partition function. He was a great Indian mathematical genius.
π MATHEMATICAL ACHIEVEMENTSπ
He did a lot of independent research in mathematics during his lifetime. His contributions are acknowledged worldwide and used in many fields today.
When he was 15 years old, he obtained a copy of George Shoobridge Carr’s Synopsis of Elementary Results in Pure and Applied Mathematics, 2 vol. (1880–86). This collection of thousands of theorems, many presented with only the briefest of proofs and with no material newer than 1860, aroused his genius. Having verified the results in Carr’s book, Ramanujan went beyond it, developing his own theorems and ideas.
In 1903 he secured a scholarship to the university of madras but lost it the following year because he neglected all other studies in pursuit of mathematics. Ramanujan continued his work, without employment and living in the poorest circumstances. After marrying in 1909 he began a search for permanent employment that culminated in an interview with a government official, Ramachandra Rao. Impressed by Ramanujan’s mathematical prowess, Rao supported his research for a time, but Ramanujan, unwilling to exist on charity, obtained a clerical post with the Madras Port Trust.
π DISCOVERIESπ
One of his many interesting discoveries was the nesting of square roots. A nest is when one square root is under another root. Including complex analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions.

An intuitive mathematics genius, Ramanujan's discoveries have influenced several areas of mathematics, but he is probably most famous for his contributions to number theory and infinite series, among them fascinating formulas ( pdf ) that can be used to calculate digits of pi in unusual ways.
πHARDY-RAMANUJAN NUMBERπ
S.Ramanujan loved numbers. He probably found numbers that were expressed as the sum of two squares and the sum of two cubes also. He said that 1729 is the smallest number that can be expressed as a sum of two cubes in two different ways.
1729=1728+1=123 + 13
1729=1000+729+103 + 93
