          Introduction

          Srinivasa Ramanujan has been hailed as a natural mathematical genius and compared to all time great mathematicians Euler and Gauss, by his friend, philosopher and guide, G H Hardy.

        5. He was born on December 22, , in a poor household in Kumba-konam town, in Tamil Nadu.

          6. In 1940, Hardy gave two lectures at Yale University, which were subsequently published as a book [1] entitled: "Ramanujan: Twelve Lectures inspired by his life and work".
