Numerals based on the number of angles contained in each number. This numerical system was invented by the Persian Mathematician al-Khwarizmi.
They are referred to as the “Hindu-Arabic numerals” or simply “Arabic numerals”, which were adopted by the Europeans during the Middle Ages, and were later transmitted to the Americas.
The “Hindi numerals” on the other hand, are most commonly used in The Middle East. They consist of : (٠ – ١ – ٢ – ٣ – ٤ – ٥ – ٦ – ٧ – ٨ – ٩)
The term “Hindi numerals” also refer to any numbers used in Indian languages, (०.१.२.३.४.५.६.७.८.९)
So even though, most people refer to the (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) as English numbers, They are in fact Hindu-Arabic.
