@BalarkaSen I read less about that. I was mainly interested in his work on series and integrals. (well, and still interested in his work)

@Chris'ssis Ramanujan rarely did any geometric work, you see. He was mainly an algebraist.
Does that convince you that he is not a god?

@BalarkaSen Well, that "god" you don't need to take it literally, but it's just a way of expression the fact that he was exceptionally awesome in all he did.
