A number symbol or numeral, (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9), also called 'glyphs', evolved from ancient Brahmi numerals and were introduced to Western Europe by Arab scholars.
Numberal symbols are used to describe a count, measurement, calculate, label an object, and create codes in describing mathematical concepts of
- quantity,
- order,
- structure,
- space,
- change, and
- pattern (repetition and variations).
The word mathematics is from the Greek meaning learning and study. In arithmetic, the oldest branch of mathematics, numbers are used in the operations of
- addition (+),
- subtraction (-),
- multiplication (x) and
- division (÷).
Other branches of medieval mathematics were geometry (literally measure the Earth) for spatial relationships, music (harmonics), and astronomy.

Quipu (Spanish spelling), a recording devices used by the Inca, usually consisted of colored spun and plied threads from llama or alpaca hair or cotton cords with knots that encoded tax, census and events data. The knots seem to represent a base 10 positional system. Some kuipu (kuipu is word for "knot" in Quechua, the native Inca language) may have just a few strands, others have up to 2,000 strands.
North American indigenous peoples' wampum, usually thought of as a medium of exchange, or currency, was also used in a similar way.
