One of the most famous invention of Pacioli was the idea of Double Entry Bookkeeping. This is due to the publication of his famous encyclopedia on mathematics: Summa de Arithmetica, Geometria, Proportioni et Proportionalita[2]. According to Mark Newman, Luca Pacioli is also attributed to have published about imaginary number in his Summa de Arithmetica.
