Bhāskara II
Bhāskara II (born 1114, Biddur, India—died c. 1185, probably Ujjain) was the leading mathematician of the 12th century, who wrote the first work with full and systematic use of the decimal number system. Bhāskara II was the lineal successor of the noted Indian mathematician Brahmagupta (598- c. 665) as head of an astronomical observatory ...
Bhāskara i
Introduction. Bhāskara i (c. 600 - c. 680) was a 7th-century Indian mathematician and astronomer. He is referred to as Bhaskara i in order to differentiate from the 12th-century mathematician Bhaskara. Bhaskara-i is considered to be one of the three pearls of Indian Astronomy and Mathematics along with Brahmagupta and Madhava Samgramagrama.
Bhāskara I
Bhāskara (c. 600 - c. 680) (commonly called Bhāskara I to avoid confusion with the 12th-century mathematician Bhāskara II) was a 7th-century Indian mathematician and astronomer who was the first to write numbers in the Hindu-Arabic decimal system with a circle for the zero, and who gave a unique and remarkable rational approximation of the sine function in his commentary on Aryabhata's ...

Bhaskara I (600
Bhaskara I was an author of two treatises and commentaries to the work of Aryabhata I. His works are the Mahabhaskariya Ⓣ, the Laghubhaskariya Ⓣ and the Aryabhatiyabhasya Ⓣ. The Mahabhaskariya Ⓣ is an eight chapter work on Indian mathematical astronomy and includes topics which were fairly standard for such works at this time.

Bhaskara I: The Mathematical Genius of Ancient India
Bhaskara I, also known as Bhaskara the Teacher, was born in ancient India during a time of rich intellectual and cultural growth. Little is known about his early life, but it is believed that he hailed from the southern region of the Indian subcontinent. His thirst for knowledge led him to become one of the most revered mathematicians of his time.
