It had a Japanese subsidiary named . History By 1984, Atari, Inc. had been split into two distinct companies. Atari Corporation was responsible for computer and console games and hardware and owned the rights to the Atari brand for these domains. Atari Games was formed from Atari, Inc.'s arcade division, and were able to use the Atari name on arcade releases but not on console or computer games.

At the time, Nintendo restricted their licensees to releasing only five games per year, mandated that Nintendo handle cartri ...

Tian Yuan Shu
''Tian yuan shu'' () is a Chinese system of algebra for polynomial equations. Some of the earliest existing writings were created in the 13th century during the Yuan dynasty. However, the tianyuanshu method was known much earlier, in the Song dynasty and possibly before. History The Tianyuanshu was explained in the writings of Zhu Shijie (''Jade Mirror of the Four Unknowns'') and Li Zhi (''Ceyuan haijing''), two Chinese mathematicians during the Mongol Yuan dynasty. However, after the Ming overthrew the Mongol Yuan, Zhu and Li's mathematical works went into disuse as the Ming literati became suspicious of knowledge imported from Mongol Yuan times. Only recently, with the advent of modern mathematics in China has the tianyuanshu been re-deciphered. Meanwhile, ''tian yuan shu'' arrived in Japan, where it is called ''tengen-jutsu''. Zhu's text '' Suanxue qimeng'' was deciphered and was important in the development of Japanese mathematics (''wasan'') in the 17th and 18th centuri ...
