《九章算术》成书过程中的数学文化特征

The Mathematical Character of Emergency and Usage of the Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art

《九章算术》是我国古典数学的一部重要的经典著作,它总结了我国先秦至西汉的数学成果,形成以问题为中心的算法体系,其成书与应用过程带有鲜明的数学文化特征.由于《九章算术》内容的实用性及算法的普适性等特点,使其不仅获得了很大的成功,而且对中国数学的发展和数学文化的进步都产生积极的影响.《九章算术》不仅是中国古典数学进一步发展的基础,而且还是远东数学的源头,在人类数学发展史上有着重要的作用.

The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art is a very important part of Chinese ancient math works, which summaries the math achievements in the period from the Pre-Qin Period to the Western Han Dynasty and forms a arithmetic system center on problems. Its emergency and usage have a strong sense of mathematical culture. Because of its character of practicability and universality, The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art wined great success and contributed a lot to the math and mathematical culture. The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art is not only the basis of Chinese ancient math development, but also the source of the math in the Far East, and it plays great role in the history of human math development.
