Yang Hui Born: about 1238 in Qiantang (now Hangzhou), Chekiang province, China Died: about 1298 in China Click the picture above to see a larger version Previous (Chronologically) Next Biographies Index Previous (Alphabetically) Next Main index Version for printing Little is known about Yang Hui other than that he wrote several outstanding mathematical texts. He was a contemporary of both Qin Jiushao and Li Zhi , which we know from the dates on which his texts appeared, showing that he lived towards the end of the Nan (Southern) Sung dynasty. However, both Qin and Li 's major works appeared about fifteen years before the first work of Yang. Zhu Shijie was only born about the time Yang Hui's first texts were appearing so his life also overlapped that of Yang. There is a small amount of information about Yang Hui which he relates in his books. He tells us that he was taught mathematics by Liu I who was a native of Chung-shan, in Kwangtung province, which is south of Chekiang province where Yang Hui was born. Nothing at all is known of Liu I, so this information is less helpful in giving us details of Yang Hui than it might be. Again we know the names of four of Yang's friends who were also interested in mathematics, but again as these men are unknown except for Yang's reference to them. The best guess that historians make is that Yang was a minor Chinese official. Most Chinese scholars of the period were officials, for there were no professional mathematicians, but he could not have held an important post since were he a major official he would appear in records of the dynasty. I [EFR] am less certain about this standard view.

Puzzles Puzzle 121. THE LEGEND OF YANG HUI I have chosen as the last puzzle of the current millennium, one issue from a chapter of the book in preparation of my friend Luis Rodríguez - entitled " The World of Prime Numbers " - with his kindly and generous permission. The chosen puzzle deals with an ancient puzzle supposedly posed by the Emperor Sung to the mathematician Yang Hui In Rodríguez's own words: "...After a laborious work , Yang Hui could finish in the year 1275 his book 'Hsu Ku Chai Chi Suan Fa' (Continuation of Ancient Mathematical Methods for Elucidating the Strange Properties of Numbers). Among other matters this book is about magic squares. He gives the instructions for construct magic squares of order 3, 4 and 5. The day he presented the book to old Emperor Sung - an enthusiast of mathematics Yang Hui said: Majesty, here is my gift : a magic square of numbers in arithmetic progression such that if you add one to each cell results another of prime numbers only. (Constant difference = 210) Enchanted the Emperor rewarded him with a splendid steed and said to him afterwards: 'But now, I observe that if one is subtracted to each cell, not all of they results primes.'

Ex. 2034 would be written with symbols for 2,1000,3,10,4, meaning 2 times 1000 plus 3 times 10 plus 4. Goes back to origins of Chinese writing. Calculations performed using small bamboo counting rods. The positions of the rods gave a decimal place-value system, also written for long-term records. digit was a space. Arranged left to right like Arabic numerals. Back to 400 B.C.E. or earlier. Addition: the counting rods for the two numbers placed down, one number above the other. The digits added (merged) left to right with carries where needed. Subtraction similar.
