Calculus, Kerala's gift to the world
600 years before Newton and Liebniz, the Kerala mathematicians discovered the Calculus, Calculus or Kalana is said to be Kerala's gift to Europe ! This truth was unearthed by Dr C J Joseph and Dr CK Raju, in their books, the Crest of the Peacock and the Cultural Foundations of Mathematics respectively !
KSAM was founded by Madhava and had illustrious mathematicians like Parameshwara, Neelakanta, Jyeshtadeva, Achyuta Pisharady and the poet Melpathur. When KSAM is combined with Astrology, it becomes KSAMA, the Kerala School of Astronomy, Maths and Astrology.

In the realm of Astrology, Kerala's gift was the satellite Gulika. Horary Astrology was well developed by the Kerala astrologers.
Western astronomers do not admit this truth.
It was an Englishman, Charles Mathew Whish, who brought to the world the genius of Kerala mathematicians in his book "On the Hindu Quadrature of the Circle and the infinite series of the proportion of the circumference to the diameter exhibited in the four Sastras, the Tantra Sahgraham, Yucti Bhasha, Carana Padhati and Sadratnamala"
It is to be noted that the origin of sine and cos is India. Jya and Koti Jya were the terms used by the Indian mathematicians. The Arabs converted these terms as Jiba and Kojiba. It was wrongly translated into Latin as Sinus and Cosinus and became Sin and Cosine in English. Bhuja Jya means R Sin, Koti Jya means R Cos and Sparsha Jya means Tan x. The Indian inverse functions are Sparsha chapa for Arctan, Bhuja chapa for Arc Sine and Koti Chapa for Arc cos.

Aryabhata's Sine Table was the first Sine Table in the History of Mathematics. The Sine Table of Madhava is similar. When a 360 degree Circle is divided by 4, we get quadrants of 90 degrees each. The Madhava Sine Table can be called the Table of R Sine Differences, as sine values are given for every 3 degree 45 minutes. There are 24 * 3.45 = 90 or 24 R Sines. These tables were used by Christopher Clavius, when he solved the mathematical problem vexing the Westerners ! The Westerners triumphed with the knowledge of Indian Maths and initiated the Gregorian Calendrical Reforms !
Tan Tables were also given to mathematical students. The term Jya for 5 degrees was used first by the mathematician, Brahmagupta and we have 6 Jyas of 5 degrees each to constitute a Zodiacal Sign. The Zodiac is made up of 72 Jyas ( 72*5 = 360 ) and a Quadrant is made up of 18 Jyas ( 18*5 = 90 ). Tan values are given for every 5 degrees but then Tan tables make the mathematical students lazy !
Since there were no computers in hoary times, cowrie shells were used to calculate planetary positions. Paral Sankhya was used. Veda Veda means 44, as there are four Vedas ! Netra Netra means 22, as there are two eyes !

The genius of Puliyoor Purushotaman Namboothiri condensed the thousands of slokas of the 18 Siddhantas into 1000 odd slokas, called the Ganitha Nirnaya. It is one of the best books on Mathematical Astrology ever written. He was ably assisted by the Maths Professor, Prof Krishna Warrier.
In the Kerala system, 14 major perturbations of the Moon are highlighted and 14 trignometric corrections are done for the 14 lunar anomalies.
After computing the Chandra Madhyamam, the mean longitude of the Moon, after 14 trignometric corrections, the longitude is called Samskrutha Chandra Madhyamam, Samskruthendu.
Chathur dasebhyebhyo balanyabhibhyo
Neethva Thulasadi Vasa Dhanarnam
Krithva tad Indor Apaneeya Thungam
Thado Mridujya phala Samskruthendu
After the fourteen corrections trignometric, tthe longitude of Moon is derived, known as the Cultured Longitude.
( Ganitha Nirnaya )
Then the Parinathi Kriya or Parinathi Samskara, Reduction to the Ecliptic is done.
Add Sin M
To Cultured Longitude
After the fourteen Reductions
Deduct the Node
Then reduce it to Ecliptic
Then we get
Luna's true longitude !
Vikshepa Vritheeya Gatho Vipatha
Thasmannayel Jyam Parinathyabhikhyam
Yugmau pada sarvam idam Vidheyam
Syal Kranti Vritteeya Ehaisha Chandra.
