Second, johann bernoulli's son daniel bernoulli went to Russia on 1725 and recommended Euler to czar Cadling I, so Euler came to Petersburg on 1727. 1733, at the age of 26, Euler became a professor of mathematics at the Academy of Sciences in Petersburg. 1735, Euler solved an astronomical problem (calculating the orbit of a comet), which took several famous mathematicians several months to solve, but Euler used his own invented method and completed it in three days. However, overwork made him suffer from eye diseases and unfortunately lost his right eye. At this time, he was only 28 years old. 174 1 year, at the invitation of Peter the Great of Prussia, Euler went to Berlin as the director of the Institute of Physics and Mathematics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences until 1766, and later returned to Petersburg at the sincere invitation of Tsar Cadling II. Unexpectedly, not long after, his left eye vision decreased and he was completely blind. Unfortunate things followed. 177 1 year, the Petersburg fire damaged Euler's residence. 64-year-old Euler was blinded by illness and was trapped in the fire. Although he was saved from the fire by others, his research and a lot of research results were reduced to ashes.
The heavy blow still didn't make Euler fall, and he vowed to get the loss back. Before he was completely blind, he could still see vaguely. He seized the last moment, scribbled the formula he found on a big blackboard, and then dictated its contents, which were recorded by his students, especially his eldest son A Euler (mathematician and physicist). After Euler was completely blind, he still fought against the darkness with amazing perseverance and studied with memory and mental arithmetic until his death, which lasted 17 years.
