Johann Carl Friedrich Gauss is a famous German mathematician, physicist, astronomer and geographer, and one of the founders of modern mathematics. 1807, Gauss became a professor at the University of G? ttingen and director of the local observatory. He is the author of Arithmetic Research. Gauss discovered the distribution theorem of prime numbers; Invented the least square method; This paper summarizes the application of complex numbers, and strictly proves that every N-order algebraic equation must have N real numbers or complex numbers.
Gauss also proved the law of quadratic reciprocity; The concept of triangle congruence theorem is derived. Gauss is regarded as one of the most important mathematicians in history and is known as the "prince of mathematics". He is one of the founders of differential geometry (Gauss, Janos, Lobachevsky) and the number one mathematician in the world.
Introduction of other famous mathematicians
Archimedes: A great philosopher, encyclopedic scientist, mathematician, physicist and mechanic in ancient Greece, the founder of statics and hydrostatics. Archimedes enjoys the reputation of "the father of mechanics", and his teacher is Euclid, a famous mathematician in ancient Greece and known as "the father of geometry".
2. isaac newton: Sir, President of the Royal Society, a famous British physicist, an encyclopedic "all-rounder". In mathematics, Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz shared the honor of developing calculus. He also proved the generalized binomial theorem and put forward Newton's method to approximate the zero point of function, which contributed to the study of power series.
