Takakazu Seki Kowa Seki Kowa came to be known as “the arithmetical sage.” What do you think this means? A sage in this sense doesn’t refer to the spice that belongs to the mint family, but instead refers to one who is wise and perceptive. Seki was considered “the arithmetical sage” because he was very knowledgeable skillful in mathematics and was highly respected because of his wisdom. Seki Kowa was born into a warrior, or samurai, family in March 1642, in Japan. At an early age he was adopted by a noble family and assumed the family name Seki. At an early age, about nine years old, Seki was introduced to math by a servant. From then on, Seki studied math and became self educated, now considered a prodigy. Seki collected math books from the Chinese and Japanese cultures and eventually became recognized as an expert in mathematics. This recognition led to many students for Seki to instruct. Contributions by Seki are difficult to identify due to the secrecy that surrounded rival schools in Japan. Seki was also held to the Samurai Code that demanded modesty. There is plenty of evidence that he made major discoveries in calculus and is considered to be the founder of Japanese mathematics. In 1674, Seki wrote

Seki, Kowa (Takakazu) (c. 1642-1708) Japanese mathematician who created a new mathematical notation system and used it to discover many of the theorems and theories that were being - or were shortly to be - discovered in the West. Seki was born in Fujioka in Gunma prefecture. Much of his reputation stems from the social reform he introduced in order to develop the study of mathematics in Japan and make it widely accessible. He introduced Chinese ideograms to represent unknowns and variables in equations, and although he was obliged to confine his work to equations up to the fifth degree - his algebraic alphabet (endan-jutsu) was not suitable for general equations of the nth degree - he was able to create equations with literal coefficients of any degree and with several variables, and to solve simultaneous equations. In this way he was able to derive the equivalent of f(x), and thereby to arrive at the notion of a discriminant - a special function of the root of an equation expressible in terms of the coefficients. Another of Seki's contributions was the rectification of the circle; he obtained a value for that was correct to the 18th decimal place.
