India is the inventor of zero as a number while Arabs introduced the zero as merely a symbol for separation and it is a world fact

reference: Deb Jacobs,"Accelerating process improvement using agile technology", Auerbach publications, Taylor and Francis Group, Boca Raton, Newyork.

"The concept of zero as a number and not merely a symbol for separation is attributed to India where by the 9th century CE practical calculations were carried out using zero, which was treated like any other number, even in case of division.[7][8] The Indian scholar Pingala (circa 5th-2nd century BC) used binary numbers in the form of short and long syllables (the latter equal in length to two short syllables), making it similar to Morse Code.[9][10] He and his contemporary Indian scholars used the Sanskrit word śūnya to refer to zero or void.[11]"
