When did Indians discover 0? How did you find out?
The discovery of 0 began in India. Around 2000 BC, the symbol "0" was used in Vedas, the oldest Brahmin literature in ancient India. At that time, 0 indicated that there was no (empty) position in Brahmanism in India. Around the beginning of the 6th century, India began to use the notation of fate. At the beginning of the 7th century, the great Indian mathematician Graf Magpuda first explained that 0 of 0 is 0, and any number can be obtained by adding or subtracting 0. Unfortunately, he didn't mention the example of calculating with the symbol of life position. Some scholars believe that the birth and development of the concept of "0" in India is due to the philosophical thought of "absolutely nothing" in Indian Buddhism. In 733 AD, an Indian astronomer introduced this notation to Arabs during his visit to Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, because it was simple and easy to use, and soon replaced the previous Arabic numerals. This symbol was later introduced into western Europe.
