西方数学史里把最早研究不定方程的功绩归于公元250年左右的数学家丢番图. 有关丢番图的情况现在已很少知道,他可能是一个巴比伦人.他写了一部《算术》,但后来保存下来的只有其中的6本.这是希腊、罗马时代保存下来的最具诱惑性的论著之一. 丢番图在数学上的贡献应予以肯定.但是,历史上最早提到不定方程的并不是丢番图,而是我国的《九章算术》.例如,《九章算术》“方程”章中有一道题,题的意思是
In the history of Western mathematics, the earliest research on the uncertain equations was attributed to the divorced figure of the mathematician around AD 250. The situation of the Diocen plot is now rarely known. He may be a Babylonian. He wrote an “Arithmetic”. However, only six of them were saved. This is one of the most seductive themes preserved in the Greek and Roman times. The contribution of Diophantine in mathematics should be affirmed. However, the earliest mention in history is uncertain. The equation is not the Diopan map, but our country’s “Nine Chapters of Arithmetic.” For example, the “Equation of the Nine Chapters” chapter has a question titled.
