Aryabhata did not discover zero, but he made significant contributions to mathematics and the place-value numeral system. The concept of zero as a number evolved later, with contributions from Indian mathematicians around the 5th century AD. Aryabhata's work included the use of a placeholder for zero, which laid the groundwork for its eventual formalization. Zero as a distinct mathematical entity was developed later, notably by Brahmagupta in the 7th century.
