Especially, since he is someone who is resting in peace for more than one century and cannot defend himself, with arguments. I still believe that Dase was a total arithmetic genius, (1 in a billion and autodidakt ), but unfortunately born in the wrong era, without any software and competitions. The GOAT discussion has a big fallacy, because we can never benchmark dead people like Simonides, Dase or the I I liked much better the Indian biopic movie about Ramanujan (’ The Man Who Knew Infinity ’ ) įinally, the biopic movie that Bollywood did for Devi, was very mediocre and unnecessarily fixated on drama/romance. Devi did, seem to me of very low intelligence (astrology, tarot etc.). Granth has quit competing in the last 7 years, so I am not sure if he still practices.Īlso, besides calculation, many other activities which Mrs. If not, I will generate 1 task from online number generators and ask them to calculate the product on the drawing board or write down the product result on paper The Memoriad software currently allows multiplication generators of 3x3 up to 10x10 and only 20x20 as a special mod, so hopefully there will be a modification to add 13 x 13 as well. In fact, in the next World Cup, I will ask them to do so, and hopefully record it on video. Lee (and probably Freddy as well) could easily break Devi’s record of 28 seconds for a 13 x 13 if they wanted. If you don’t see him on the ranking tables for addition, roots or multiplication, this means he did not finish 10 tasks correctly on time, in any of the competitions that he took part (i think the first 3 World Cups and 1 international Memoriad ('08). He is just the 4th best ever.Īnd since Johnny mentioned Gamm, you can see his results in the link above. (Same with the high 13th root of Alexis Lemaire.)Īnd Granth is not even the best in the world in multiplication. Ok, I know that Devi had calculated correctly a 13 x 13 (with the second number having a 0 in the end.)īut me, Scott, Jan, Melik, Yusnier and others in Dresden 2014 witnessed a 14 yo Indian boy (Granth) doing a 20 x 20 multiplication in around 2 minutes and 30 seconds.Īnd I am 100% sure that this 20x20 operation was randomly generated.īut with these TV shows and documentaries, I am not really sure about the neutrality of the chosen question. So, I would personally refrain from using fancy words such as ‘fastest ever’ or ‘best ever’. Can you benchmark them all for mental speed? - No. There have lived more than 100+ billion humans in history. Visit for more resources and printables related to addition and multiplication.There is no ‘fastest’ and best’ mental calculator ever, because there are many different categories. For example, you might say 5,342, and students would have to show 5 sky blue beads, 3 blue beads, 4 lavender beads, and 2 dark purple beads.
