Genius, she has so much of knowledge abt. math, which is unbelievable, probably she has schizophrenia, which is due to great knowledge, :whistle:


She has developed her own way of solving mind boggling complex mathematical problems. And her basis was Vedic Mathematics which was followed by India's greatest mathematician Ramanjan also. She never went to school And she was a child prodigy.


Some have unusual talent, which cannot be explained. One cannot acquire such talent through education or any other way. I also remember one who had photographic memory. He could reproduce entire book like a camera even if he did not know the language. Once he witnessed two men fighting. He did not know the language of those two men but he reproduced all their talk just like tape recorder in court. Shakuntala Devi had also such talent. It is fallacy to say that Vedic mathematics or anything else would have enabled her talent. There are many Vedic scholars in India but nobody has such talent.


True. Talent is not just availability of knowledge. It's the application of knowledge that leads an individual to achieve his or her goals
Thank you friends, I think every one has expressed their views about human computer. This thread is locked now.
