Devanagari numerals

The Devanagari numerals are the number symbols used in the Devanagari script, which is mainly used for writing languages like Hindi, Marathi, and Sanskrit. These numerals are part of the decimal system, just like Western Arabic numerals (0–9), but they have different shapes. Instead of using the commonly known 1, 2, 3, etc., Devanagari uses its own symbols for each number.
