		Ramanujan's sum Ramanujan or Ramanujam is a Tamil surname.
		In mathematics, Ramanujans sum, named for Srinivasa Ramanujan and usually denoted cq(n), is defined to be where n and q are positive integers, (a,q) denotes the greatest common divisor of a and q, and e(x) is the exponential function exp(2Ï€ix).
		Srinivasa Ramanujan Iyengar (Tamil: ஸ்ரீனிவாச ராமானுஜன்) (22 December 1887 – 26 April 1920) was an Indian mathematician and one of the greatest mathematical geniuses of the 20th century.

		Ramanujan's mother had a dream in which the family Goddess told her not to stand in the way of her son's travel, and so he made plans accordingly, although he took pains to keep a proper Brahmin lifestyle as far as he could, when he did.
		Ramanujan was later appointed a Fellow of Trinity, and the highest level of honor in science, a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS).
		That Ramanujan conjecture is an assertion on the size of the coefficients of the tau-function, a typical cusp form in the theory of modular forms.

		As one reflects on the life Ramanujan a thought that comes to mind is the possibility that his capabilities might well have gone unrecognised and opportunity may not have come his way for the growth and development of his talents.
		Ramanujan's uncanny intuition was his special asset Many of his results were so complicated that expert mathematicians had to put in great effort to provide acceptable proofs, and there still remain unproved results.
		Ramanujan was a genius who conjectured and made giant leaps of imagination; as a seasoned mathematician, Hardy put emphasis on rigor and proceeded by logical step-by-step reasoning.

		In that vein, we stop at the door to one of twentieth century’s towering genius in mathematics, the Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan, who by the time he died at the age of 32 years, had composed 3000 theorems, which are being deciphered till today.
		In Ramanujan’s instance each theorem was because of divine inspiration from the family deity, the goddess Namagiri: Schizophrenia in John Nash’s lifelong battle with the disease.
		We forget that Ramanujan was not just a mathematician, although he happens to be one of the few definitive ones, in the lines of Euler, Fermat, and Poincaire, he was also a human being of flesh and blood.
