India’s Pride – Fatest Human Calculator In World

Neelakanta Bhanu Prakash, a 20-year-old boy from Hyderabad becomes the fastest human calculator in the world after winning first-ever gold for India in Mental Calculation World Championship at Mind Sports Olympiad (MSO).

The MSO is the most prestigious international competition for games of mental skill and mind sports which is held in London every year. It was first held in 1998. The title of the fastest human calculator in the world was once accorded to the mathematical genius, Shakuntala Devi. Mental Calculation World Championship was held virtually amid the pandemic, so as to avoid human contact. As per several reports, a total of 30 participants up to 57 years of age took part in MSO. The championship had participants from 13 nations including UK, Germany, UAE, France, Greece, and Lebanon. Leading with 65 points, Bhanu Prakash won the competition, followed by a Lebanese contender in the second position and a UAE contender, who bagged the third position.

As per several reports, the championship was held in London on Independence Day this year. Bhanu Prakash is a student of Mathematics (Hons.) at Delhi University’s St Stephen College and holds world records along with 50 Limca records for being the fastest human calculator in the world. These records were earlier held by Math maestros such as Scott Flansburg and Shakuntala Devi.

while speaking to ANI about his achievements, Bhanu Prakash said that he holds 4 world records and 50 Limca records for being the fastest human calculator in the world. He continued that his brain calculates quicker than the speed of a calculator. Breaking these records, once held by Math maestros like Scott Flansburg and Shakuntala Devi Bhanu has become the nation’s pride. He humbly said that he has done his bit to place India on the global level of mathematics.” Bhanu at this young age is the founder of ‘Exploring Infinities’, an educational start-up that seeks to impart mathematics lessons to school students across India, in regional languages and make brain training a popular culture.

The judges were fascinated by his speed, the 20-year-old said, “I won the gold medal with a clear margin of 65 points. The judges were so spellbound by my speed, that they required me to perform more calculations to confirm my accuracy.” Bhanu Prakash also spoke about his vision of creating “VISION Math” labs and how he wants to reach out to millions of children to make them fall in love with maths.
