The provided text explains that ancient Chinese mathematics has had a significant, though often underappreciated and indirect, impact on the modern world. Key direct contributions include the decimal place-value system, the concept and rules for negative numbers, and an early discovery of Pascal's Triangle. Furthermore, Chinese mathematicians developed influential methods and concepts like algorithms for solving equations (similar to Horner's method) and the Chinese Remainder Theorem, which are crucial in contemporary computer science and cryptography. Beyond specific discoveries, their pragmatic and algorithmic approach to problem-solving deeply influenced the development of numerical analysis and modern computer programming. The text attributes the lesser-known nature of these contributions to historical linguistic and geographic isolation, a Eurocentric historical narrative, and the indirect transmission of ideas through other cultures.

These ideas come from my own notes. My repo is https://github.com/smedum/topy-v0

This an open source project and as I am an independent researcher, this needs further collaboration with those in the field. I am quite astonished that I have got this far on my own.
