Original Note:
While the digit 0 was first introduced as part of the decimal system in India, it was not the first civilization to use a placeholder for a null value, as the post implies. The claim that "Indians...created the foundation for mathematics" is unfounded. https://books.google.com/books?id=Qvo8-KC__VAC&pg=PA85&source=gbs_toc_r&cad=2#v=onepage&q&f=false
