Historical note
The term algebra is believed to have first been used in the title of a book written during the Middle Ages (around 825 CE) by a Persian mathematician whose name was Muhammad Ibn Mūsā al-Khuwārizmī and after whom the term algorithm. was named. The book, which presented work based on that of Greek and Egyptian mathematicians, was entitled Al-jabr wa’l-muqqâbalah; the first words of the title, al-jabr, mean “restoration” or “reunion of broken parts”.
