	Multiplication - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In mathematics, multiplication is an arithmetic operation which is the inverse of division, and in elementary arithmetic, can be interpreted as repeated addition.
		Multiplication can be denoted in several equivalent ways.
		Once multiplication has been defined for natural numbers, it can be extended to include integers, and then to real and complex numbers.

	Peasant multiplication - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Peasant multiplication, also known as Russian peasant multiplication, is an old algorithm for multiplication.
		It requires no use of a multiplication table other than the ability to multiply by two; it also requires that the user be able to divide by 2, and to add.
		It is still used by peasants in some areas, such as Russia.

		In music and musical set theory, multiplication modulo 12 is a basic operation which may be performed on pitch or pitch class sets.

	Multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This has the advantage of being fairly accurate when performed by a skilled person, and the disadvantages that the method is complex, requires memorization of a multiplication table or in earlier times possession of a set of Napier's bones, neat penmanship and mental focus, not necessarily all present in young students.
		During the multiplication phase, the lattice is filled in with two-digit products of the corresponding digits labelling each row and column: the tens digit goes in the top-left corner.
		This algorithm is also known as Peasant multiplication, because it has been widely used among those who are too busy to memorize the multiplication tables required by long multiplication.

		The next multiplication is between the 800 and the 8 in 978, which is again one less power than the previous multiple, and so the 6 in the 64 must go in the column under the 6 of the previous 56.
		One simple hand multiplication is now so wide-ranging that it is hard to believe it was not known prior to the first written description.

		The French peasant is no simple countryman, no downright "paysan du Danube;" both in fact and in fiction he is now "le rusé paysan." That is the stage which he has reached in the progressive development which the constitution of things has imposed on human intelligence and human emancipation.
		Jones affirms,(5) that a "peasant* population raising their own wages from the soil, and consuming them in kind, are universally acted upon very feebly by internal checks, or by motives disposing them to restraint.
		But even where peasant properties are accompanied by an excess of numbers, this evil is not necessarily attended with the additional economical disadvantage of too great a subdivision of the land.

		A formal recursive definition of multiplication can be given by the rules: : x · 0 = 0 : x · y = x + x·(''y'' − 1) where x is a real number, and y is a natural number.
