Was watching a lecture on youtube from MIT about Linear recurrences(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNt5Ll6hGqo&list=PL3o9D4Dl2FJ8zkoLxaO4aKlq2JsKsz365&index=16) and professor credited Panini to have invented the famous Fibonacci series in 200BC, some 2000 years before Europeans. Found out that Panini was born in modern day pakistan.
I was never taught about him in Indian textbooks as a kid and discovered hi m later online when reading European textbooks on Computer Science.
How about Pakistan is something taught about such people there.
Pāṇini (fl. 6th century BCE[1][2]) (Sanskrit: पाणिनि, IPA: [pɑːɳin̪i]; a patronymic meaning "descendant of Paṇi"), or Panini, was a Sanskrit grammarian from ancient India.[3] He was born in Pushkalavati, Gandhara, in the modern-day Charsadda of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan.[1][2]
