Standing on the shoulders of giants, there is no next sentence. This is a sentence that Newton said. Many people use this as their motto to motivate themselves. Newton once said, "If I see farther than others, it is because I stand on the shoulders of giants."

Newton lived a long life, 80 years old. Newton pursued theology and indulged in alchemy in the second half of his life. No one knows why a scientist is lost in God. The first half explains the world with science, and the second half proves the existence of God with scientific phenomena.

Isaac newton was born in a small village in Lincolnshire, England, at Woolsop Manor, an outdated village in Woolsop. Three months before Newton was born, his father, Isaac, had just died. Newborn Newton was thin because of premature birth; It is said that his mother HannahAyscough once said that Newton was small enough to put him in a quart cup when he was born.

In mechanics, Newton expounded the principle of conservation of angular momentum. In optics, he invented reflecting telescope, and developed the color theory based on the observation that a prism diverges white light into a visible spectrum. He also systematically expressed the cooling law and studied the speed of sound. In mathematics, Newton and gottfried 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.

Most modern historians believe that Newton and Leibniz independently developed calculus and created their own unique symbols for it. According to people around Newton, Newton came up with his method several years earlier than Leibniz, but he hardly published anything before 1693, and didn't give his complete explanation until 1704. At the same time, Leibniz published a complete description of his method in 1684. In addition, Leibniz's symbol and "differential method" were completely adopted in continental Europe, and this method was also adopted in Britain about 1820 years later. Leibniz's notebook records the development process of his thought from early stage to mature stage, but only Newton's final result is found in the known records. Newton and Leibniz's argument about calculus ruined their lives until the latter died in 17 16. This debate has drawn a gap between British and continental European mathematicians, and may have hindered the development of British mathematics for at least a century.

One of Newton's recognized achievements is the generalized binomial theorem applicable to any power. He discovered Newton's identity and Newton's method, classified binary cubic curves, made great contributions to finite difference theory, and obtained the solution of Diophantine equation by using fractional exponent and coordinate geometry for the first time. He used logarithm to approximate the partial sum of harmonic series (this is the pioneer of Euler's summation formula), and used power series and reduced power series with confidence for the first time. He also found a new formula for π. 1676, he first published his binomial expansion theorem. Newton used it to discover other infinite series, and used it to calculate areas, integrals, solve equations and so on. 1684, Leibniz introduced and lengthened S as the symbol of calculus from the tangent study of curves, and the calculus founded by Newton was rapidly popularized in mainland countries.
