The English mathematician G. H. Hardy, who worked for several years with Ramanujan, described him as "a natural mathematician". He was fortunate to have a lucky number of people working with him in mathematics.

Although Srinivasa Ramanujan did not have a formal education in pure mathematics, he made significant contributions to mathematical analysis, numerical concepts, infinite series, and continuous fractions, including solutions to previously problematic mathematical problems. In 1920 he died unknown at the age of 32 and was honored as a mathematician by his colleagues such as Leonhard Euler (1707-83) and Carl Jacobi (1804-51). Ramanujan makes an important contribution to mathematical analysis and mathematical theory as well as numerical theory as well as an infinite series and fragments of information on modern advances in mathematics.

In 1909, Ramanujan began publishing papers in the Indian Mathematical Society Journal that recognized him for his work despite having no university education. From an early age, he showed an accurate understanding of mathematics and began to develop his own ideas. In 1911 he published his first article in India. Two years later he began corresponding with British mathematician G. H. Hardy, which led to his five-year mentorship at Cambridge. This year he published several essays and his work was awarded to B.S.

The book so impressed Ramanujan that he began working on the mathematical results he had been given. For the next few years, he worked in mathematics and wrote the results in two notebooks. During this time Ramanujan's first paper, a 17-page paper with Bernoulli's numbers, appeared in 1911 in the Indian Mathematical Society Journal.

However, Ramanujan continued his mathematical studies and wrote to three mathematicians in England who arrived in January 1913 with his results. Two of them returned the books, Unopened and G. H. Hardy, who saw Ramanujan's mathematical skills and arranged for him to come to Cambridge. Besides working and coming from a poor family, Ramanujan's life was difficult for him and he sought help from friends to support him while he worked on his math findings and tried to get them identified with the most successful mathematicians.

After much encouragement from many people, including mathematician Seshu Iyer, Ramanujan sent G. A British mathematician, who was also a young scholar when he began corresponding to share his work in 1913, initially thought Ramanujan's books were fake, became convinced of his ingenuity, and obtained a research grant from the University of Madras, later awarded by Cambridge.

UG. Cambridge told him that the letters were written by an "opposing intellectual", but Hardy was unsure.

Hardy gave G. Watson Mason, a professor of pure mathematics in Birmingham wrote many manuscripts about Ramanujan and wrote them last year in India, where his photograph was taken by a stamp issued by the Indian Post Office to celebrate his birthday. Littlewood explained in his previous book that a single observation was enough to show that it was written with the highest standards of mathematics and compared him to mathematical geniuses such as Euler and Jacobi.

Ramanujan worked on the book by British mathematician G. S. Carr entitled Synopsis of the basic results of pure and applied statistics: mathematicians in the 18th and 19th centuries. To make the book practical, Ramanujan used it to advance his mathematical ambitions.

In the spring of 1913, S. Narayana Iyer, a colleague and treasurer of the Indian Mathematical Society, Ramachandra Rao and EW Middlemast, a professor of mathematics at Presidency College wrote that Ramanujan was a young man with a unique mathematical ability who was trying to present his work to British mathematicians. The Society's secretary, R.Ramach Chandra Rao, disputed this and believed that he was copying the work of archaeologists. Srinivasa and Ramanujan returned to the book after confirming the results of George Shoobridge Carr's Synopsis of Elementary Results in Pure and Applied Mathematics (two volumes), returning to the book to develop their thoughts and ideas.

Srinivasa Ramanujan was an Indian mathematician, considered to be the greatest mathematician ever to be tested and used in various fields. Ramanujan's contributions cover a wide range of mathematical disciplines, including complex analysis, numerical theory, continuous series, and continuous fractions. His guesswork and questions at the Journal of the Indian Mathematical Society (JIMS) and recording the results in lost books were a source of inspiration and inspiration for research conducted by scholars around the world.

Srinivasa Ramanujan (born December 22, 1887, in India - died April 24, 1920, at Kumbakonam) was an Indian mathematician who provided theories of numerical theory. He was also an Indian mathematician who played a key role in mathematical analysis, numerical theory, and partial continuation. Srinivasa Ramanujan was born on December 22, 1887, in India to an Indian mathematician who contributed extensively to mathematics including the results of numerical speculation and unlimited series analysis, even though he had little formal mathematical training.
