Leonhard euler is a mathematician from which country?
Leonhard euler (1April 70715 ~1September 783 18) was a Swiss mathematician and natural scientist. 1707 was born in Basel, Switzerland on April 5, and 1783 died in St. Petersburg, Russia on September 8. Euler was born in a priest's family and was influenced by his father since childhood. /kloc entered university of basel at the age of 0/3, graduated from university at the age of 0/5, and obtained a master's degree at the age of 0/6. Euler is one of the most outstanding figures in the field of mathematics in the18th century. He not only made contributions in the field of mathematics, but also pushed the whole mathematics into the field of physics. He is the most prolific mathematician in the history of mathematics, writing more than 800 pages of papers every year on average. He also wrote a large number of textbooks on mechanics, analysis, geometry and variational methods. Introduction to Differential Analysis, Principles of Differential Calculus and Principles of Integral Calculus have all become classic works in the field of mathematics. Euler studied mathematics so extensively that important constants, formulas and theorems named after him can often be seen in many branches of mathematics. In addition, Euler also dabbled in architecture, ballistics, navigation and other fields. Charles Kleiber, Secretary of State for Education and Research in Switzerland, once said, "Without many scientific discoveries made by Euler, our life today would be completely different." Laplace, a French mathematician, thinks that reading Euler is everyone's teacher. In 2007, in order to celebrate the 300th anniversary of Euler's birth, the Swiss government, the China Academy of Sciences and the Ministry of Education of China jointly held a commemorative event at the Documentation and Information Center of the China Academy of Sciences on the afternoon of April 23, 2007, reviewing Euler's life, work and influence on modern life.
