Very soon Hardy and Littlewood realized that they had discovered a rare mathematical genius. They made arrangements for Ramanujan’s passage and ay at Cambridge university.
Ramanujan found himself a stranger at Cambridge. In the company of Hardy and Littlewood, he could forget much of the hardship he had to endure. In Ramanujan, Hardy found an unsystematic mathematician similar to one who knows the Pythagoras theorem without knowing what a congruent triangle means. It was due to his lack of formal education. It was the sheer genius that led him to mathematical ‘Truths’ Ramanujan was elected, Fellow of the Royal Society on February 28, 1918.
He was the youngest Indian who received this distinguished fellowship. In October that year, he became the first Indian to be elected fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge. His achievements.
At Cambridge include the Hardy Ramanujan – Littlewood circle method in number theory. Besides being a mathematician, Ramanujan was an astrologer of repute and a good speaker. He used to give lectures on subjects like “God, zero and infinity”.
