TO INFINITY AND BEYOND

 INVENTION OF ZERO The concept of zero has not always been around, however, the introduction of zero bought a lot of changes not only in math but also in the general life of people. Zero has so many different names, for example, ‘null’, ‘nil’, ‘0’ as a digit, ‘sunya’ in Sanskrit, and so on. It is fascinating how the origin of zero bought changed and now it is used as a prime digit in mathematics. Before learning about the modern zero, let’s learn about the origin of zero in India,   Origin of Zero in India The origin of zero in India came from a well-known astronomer and mathematician of his time, Aryabhatta. The well-known scientist used zero as a placeholder number. In the 5th century, Aryabhatta introduced zero in the decimal  number system  and hence, introduced it in mathematics. After Aryabhatta, Brahmagupta described rules for zero in the 7th century. The most evident proof of the origin of zero in mathematics is mentioned in the oldest manuscript of India kno...

 KING OF INDIAN MATHEMATICS Srinivasa Ramanujan 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. 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.

  LIBRARY STOCK REGISTER MAINTENACE. The Library Accession Register is a record of all books taken in to the School Library. The information recorded about each book includes: accession number; date received; title, author and publication details; cost; the source of the volume, i.e. the donor of the work or the fund out of which it was purchased; the call number assigned to the work; and the date on which it was transferred, lost or otherwise disposed of.   

 RANGOLI COMPETITION Rangoli is a fabulous hand drawing art, originating in the Indian subcontinent, in which patterns are created on the floor using materials such as colours, diyas, flower petals, glitters etc. It is a way to express imagination. The purpose of rangoli is decoration, and it is thought to bring good luck as well. Keeping this in mind,  Rangoli making competition was organized on 22 September, 2022 at Jaigopal Garodia Government Girls Higher Secondary School for the students.  Children put in lots of efforts and came up with amazing ideas. 

FATHER OF MATHEMATICS   A Greek mathematician  Archimedes  is known as the  Father of Mathematics . He is considered the Father of Mathematics for his significant contribution to the development of mathematics. Notable inventions of Archimedes are: The calculation of measurement of a circle The method of exhaustion to measure the areas of the shapes The relationship between spheres and cylinders Uses of prime numbers The topic of infinity

  In Thailand, "555" Is Hilarious Teenagers texting in Thailand (say that three times fast) will send the digits "555" to indicate that something is funny. The reason? "5" is pronounced "ha"—so "555" translates to "hahaha." Thus, "55555" means "hahahahaha," or "ha" squared.

     TEACHER'S DAY CELEBRATION Teachers' Day  is a special day for the appreciation of  teachers , and may include celebrations to honor them for their special contributions in a particular field area, or the community tone in education. This is the primary reason why countries celebrate this day on different dates, unlike many other International Days. For example,  Argentina  has commemorated  Domingo Faustino Sarmiento 's death on 11 September as Teachers' Day since 1915. [1]  In India the birthday of the second president  Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan , 5 September, is celebrated as Teachers' Day since 1962.                                                                   TEACHER'S DAY CELEBRATION             ...
