Etymology
The word 'algebra' has its roots in the Arabic word 'al-jabr', which was used in the title of a book written by the mathematician Al-Khwarizmi in the 9th century. This book, titled 'The Compendious Book on Calculation by Completion and Balancing', introduced the concept of algebraic equations and methods for solving them. Over time, algebra evolved into a fundamental branch of mathematics, playing a crucial role in various scientific and engineering disciplines.
