About this listen
At the age of 5, Neelakantha Bhanu Prakash in his own words was good at Math, however not fantastic. Fast-forward to age 13 he bagged the title of India’s fastest human calculator and by 15 he became the world’s fastest human calculator beating the greats like Shakuntala Devi and Scott Flansburg.
Titled by BBC as ‘The Usain Bolt of Mathematics’, participating in competitive Math exams gave him that adrenaline rush and made him love the process of solving complex calculations mentally. Tune-in as we explore the binaries of Neelakantha’s wonderful mathematical journey.
