Munishvara

Munishvara was a 17th-century Indian mathematician who produced accurate sine tables. He was opposed to fellow mathematician Kamalakara. He was the author of Siddhanta Sarvabhauma which was published from the Princess of Wales Sarasvati Bhavana Granthamala edited by Gopinath Kaviraj.[1] The book presents an analysis on zodiac positions of planets, based on surya Siddhartha, a book on astronomy, published way before the birth of Aryabhatta.
