他开发了数学函数，包括现在所知的模拟模块形式，其基础是人们称之为“幻象”的东西，在大多数情况下都是无需证明的。到目前为止，他的任何一项工作都没有被否定，尽管有一些修正和改进，而在他之后的数学家们也能证明得最多他指出黑洞存在的数学模型，在黑洞概念出现之前整整100年，更不用说一个完全发展的理论，显示了他作为一个数学家的才华。他的影响在弦理论的发展中也得到了正确的注意

He developed mathematical functions including what is now known as mock modular forms based on what one would call his "visions" just by thought and without proof in most cases. None of his work has been repudiated to this date, albeit there have been corrections and improvements and mathematicians who came after him have been able to proof most of Ramanujan's work. His mathematical model that points to the existence of black holes, a full 100 years before there was any concept of black holes (let alone a fully developed theory) show's his brilliance as a mathematician. His influence has also been rightly noted in development of string theory.

有着严重的局限性，包括贫穷、缺乏与他同时代人的接触、西方占主导地位的时代以及严重的健康问题，他对数学的理解超出了任何人的视野。我们只能怀疑，如果他像名单上其他的数学天才一样受到适当的训练和激励，他会取得什么成就。即使到今天，证明他的定理也像是对圣杯的追求

With severe limitations, ranging from poverty, lack of exposures to his contemporaries, an era of western ascendency and crippling health problems, he saw mathematics beyond what any human could see. We can only wonder what would he achieved if he was properly groomed and motivated like the rest of the mathematical geniuses on the list. Even to this day proving his theorems is like a quest to the holy grail.

所有数学家无与伦比的独创性和创造力。一个自学成才的人，出身卑微。3900个定理。他毕生致力于数学。如果他活得更长，他将超过欧拉和高斯。他令人震惊。只是为了展示他的能力。如果你在一个城市花了一毛钱，他会告诉你2年后那一分钱的去向。现在更复杂的是，如果你花了两个一模一样的硬币，10年后问他，还有1000多个城市，他的计算可以预测这些一角是不是在一起，如果不是在哪里。他处理的是普通大脑甚至无法理解的无穷大数。所以他应该是第一位。不是牛顿，不是欧拉，不是高斯，绝对不是阿基米德。我还看到了几篇关于有史以来最伟大数学家的文章当我看到阿兰图灵的时候，他从来没有被列入其中。我很欣赏阿兰图灵的作品，但它根本无法与…相比

Unparalleled originality and creativity of all the mathematicians. An autodidact and comes from humble beginnings. 3,900 theorems. Dedicated his life for math. If he lived longer he would surpassed Euler and Gauss. He was astounding. Just to give a perspective of his abilities. If you spent a dime in one city, he will be able tell you where that dime would end up in 2 years. Now to make it complicated, if you spent 2 identical dimes and asked him 10 years later and that there 1000+ cities, his calculations would predict if those dimes are together or not and if not where. He dealt with infinities and large numbers that normal brains can't even comprehend.So he should be the first on the list. Not Newton, not Euler, not Gauss and definitely not Archimedes. I also see several articles about greatest mathematicians of all times and he was never even listed in that while I see Alan Turing on that. I admire Alan Turings work but its in no even close to being comparable to ... more

对于数学界来说，非常幸运的是，这位自学成才的天才出生了，但同样不幸的是，他在32岁时就去世了。作为一个虔诚的印度教教徒，他使当时的数学家们感到困惑，比他在数学领域的时间提前了几十年。现代伟大的物理学家，如米切尔·卡库（Michiel Kaku）仍然对此着迷过去的天才和继续把自己的工作用在自己的物理领域。从来没有这样的头脑在数学上诞生过，很难相信这样的头脑竟然可以存在，回来时兄弟以另一种形式回来。爱

Very fortunate for the world of mathematics that this self taught genius was born but equally unfortunate that he passed away at the young age of only 32. A devout Hindu he bewildered the mathematicians of his day, decades ahead of his time in the field of mathematics. Modern day great physicists like Michiel Kaku are still mesmerised by this past genius and continue to use his work in their field of physics. Never has such a mind in mathematics been born, hard to believe such a mind can even exists, come back again brother in another form. Love.

他对公式的洞察力相当惊人，我在任何一位欧洲数学家身上都遇到过。如果他在16岁而不是26岁时被引入现代思想和方法，对他的历史进行推测也许是没有用的。假设他可能成为他那个时代最伟大的数学家并不过分。他实际做的是太好了…当他的研究工作完成后，可能会比今天更精彩…简单地说，他是最好的！

His insight into formulae was quite amazing, and altogether beyond anything I have met with in any European mathematician. It is perhaps useless to speculate as to his history had he been introduced to modern ideas and methods at sixteen instead of at twenty-six. It is not extravagant to suppose that he might have become the greatest mathematician of his time. What he actually did is wonderful enough...when the researches which his work has suggested have been completed, it will probably seem a good deal more wonderful than it does to-day.....in simple words he is the best...!

历史上有史以来最伟大的数学家。他给出了如此典型的定理，以至于任何人都不可能想到这些定理。他是一个自学成才的人，没有受过任何正规的数学训练，尽管他给出了许多漂亮的定理，但这些定理在今天的现代还没有解决，所以他是最伟大的数学家和威尔永远是我的偶像

Greatest mathematician ever born in the history. He gave such typical theorems that it was impossible for anyone to even think about them He a a self educated man and was not having any formal training in mathematics despite all these things he gave beautiful theorems which are still unsolved in today's modern era so he is the greatest mathatician and wil always be an idol for me

Srinivasa Ramanujan也被称为“知道无穷大的人”或“数学天才”，因为他60%的作品都是在无穷数列中完成的。他是数学方面最有才华的学生。他童年时期的一个著名事件——当他在七班学习时；他能解决12班的问题，在13年的时间里，他给出了自己的解数列和二次方程的方法。他的总共轭数约为3200个，而数学家只能解出1500个左右的变元数，而这些变戏法成为了定理。我无法形容这样一个伟大的数学家，他把所有的精力都投入到了数学上数学

Srinivasa Ramanujan is also as 'The man who knew infinity' or 'Mathematical genius' the above title was given, because of his 60% work in infinity series.He was the most talented student in mathematics.A well known incident of his childhood -When he was studying in class seven ;he was able to solve the problems of class 12 and in 13 of years he was giving his own methods of solving arithematic series and quadratic equation.His total conjucters is about 3200 and mathematician are able to solve only about 1500 conjucters which become theorams. I am speechless to describe such great mathematician who invest all his in mathematics

有史以来最伟大的人，他自学了从初等数学到普遍数学，这对现在的数学家来说仍然是个谜

Greatest ever who taught himself from elementry math to universal which is still like a mystery for present mathematician

一个对数字有神奇知识的人……我想我必须给他二等……因为他过着优裕的生活……他婚后开始学数学……几年后就去世了……愿他多活50年，能完美地改变一切

Person who have magical knowledge about numbers... I think I have to give him second rank... Because he live sort life... And he started maths after his marriage... And died after few years later... May he live 50 year more he could change all things perfectly..

斯里尼瓦萨·拉马努扬是我最喜欢的数学家。对他来说，数学是上帝的语言。他曾经因为上帝对他说话而获得自己的想法。他的生活在数学的美丽之中。他对妻子雅纳基的爱是纯洁而神圣的

Srinivasa Ramanujan is my favourite mathematician. To him Mathematics was the language of God... He used to get his ideas because God spoke to him. His life walked in the beauty of Mathematics... His love for his wife Janaki was pure and divine
