Even if you may have hated math as a child, Google surprised people around the world with a doodle dedicated to a mathematical equation. On Wednesday, Google released a unique and interesting doodle on its homepage, dedicated to the Quadratic Equation, one of the most important equations in mathematics. This formula has strengthened the foundations of fields like engineering, economics, and science for decades. According to Google, this formula is one of the most searched math topics on its search engine.

What is depicted in the Google Doodle?
This doodle was launched in India today (November 12). Handwritten formulas are also visible around the doodle. The word "Google" is depicted uniquely in this doodle. Here, the second "g" and "e" appear to kick the second "o" together, as if playing basketball. This activity appears to be happening above the 'I', suggesting that this equation isn't just limited to math, but is also used to explain the movement of objects in games.

Why is this doodle special?

This doodle was launched in conjunction with the academic calendar to remind students that math can be interactive and fun, not just difficult. During October and November, many schools teach the quadratic equation, which leads to a surge in search queries. Clicking on this Google doodle takes users to a page where they can learn more about the formula's solution, history, and uses.

When and how did Google doodles originate?
Google's first doodle was created by company founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin in 1998 while they were on vacation. It served as a kind of "Out of Office" message. Later, Google began releasing Doodles to celebrate special occasions. Since then, Google has created thousands of Doodles honoring significant events in science, history, art, and culture.
