The JSOIM is divided into the two classes, namely, canonical class (CC) and exclusive class (EC). The works of the CC are based on or related to Jaina canons while those of the EC are exclusively on Mathematics. For details, see : Jadhav, Dipak (To be published elsewhere] Theory of A.P. and G.P. in Nemicandra's Works. Abbreviations : A = (Plane) Area, v = Thickness, P = Perimeter and V = Volume.
