What is Project Brahmagupta?

An open archive of 108 problems in mathematics and computation, inspired by the works of Indian mathematicians from antiquity to the present. Some problems are classical and some are modern, written in the same spirit.

When did it launch?

July 1, 2026. From that day, one problem is unlocked each midnight India Standard Time, for 108 days.

Who is this for?

Anyone with a working knowledge of mathematics who enjoys turning ideas into code. The problems range in difficulty: some are accessible with high-school algebra, others reward graduate-level number theory or careful computation.

Can I submit a problem?

Yes. The contribute page accepts problem proposals. We are looking for problems honest to Indian mathematical material, either drawn from an Indian source, or new problems that share the spirit of the collection.

Is it open source?

Yes. The site code is MIT-licensed; the content (problem statements, prose) is licensed under CC BY 4.0. The repository lives on GitHub.

Will solutions be published?

Not on the site. In keeping with the Project Euler tradition, problems are released without solutions: you discover them by solving. A discussion forum may follow once the series is complete.
