What is the difference between Mayan number system and Hindu Arabic number system?
The Mayan system is more like Roman numerals than our Hindu-Arabic numbers. It has no sign for 6, for example, but must combine the sign for 5 and the sign for 1. Normal addition and subtraction and especially multiplication and division, as we understand these operations, were difficult if not impossible.
Why didn't the Romans use the number zero?
The number zero is needed in the Hindu-Arabic numeral system because as for example it tells us that there is a difference between 207 and 27 but in the Roman numeral system a zero number is not needed because we automatically know that there is a difference between CCVII and XXVII. In fact the Romans had a symbol for zero which was N and its Latin word is 'nihil'
