Prthudakasvami is best known for his work on solving equations. The solution of a first-degree indeterminate equation by a method called kuttaka (or "pulveriser") was given by Aryabhata I . This method of finding integer solutions resembles the continued fraction process and can also be seen as a use of the Euclidean algorithm. Brahmagupta seems to have used a method involving continued fractions to find integer solutions of an indeterminate equation of the type ax c by . Prthudakasvami's commentary on Brahmagupta 's work is helpful in showing how "algebra", that is the method of calculating with the unknown, was developing in India. Prthudakasvami discussed the kuttaka method which he renamed as "bijagnita" which means the method of calculating with unknown elements. To see just how this new idea of algebra was developing in India, we look at the notation which was being used by Prthudakasvami in his commentary on Brahmagupta 's Brahma Sputa Siddhanta.
