stressful end of her life, her contributions were great for an individual who would not receive great opportunities at the time being a woman. With the contribution of Ada Lovelace, many problems with coding and programming could be solved, like how mathematicians and computer scientists re-examined her work in the late 1970s. Her work could be used for writing complex code and for the engineering and code of the concept of a computer. Her predictions for the future gave way to future coding and…
We always wish to be someone famous, to make history in our family, but sometimes we do not think we have the ability to do so. George Polya is an all-time favorite mathematician born in Budapest, Hungary on December 13, 1887. Polya had a Jewish family that consisted of three brothers, two sisters, father and mother. He changed majors multiple times to find out the real subject that he was interested in. After he found his love for math George grew his knowledge to find an easier method to…
they rather eat broccoli or do a math problem, the majority said broccoli.” Most people hate math but there are still people in the world who hold a passion for Math. These mathematicians look for ways to understand the world of numbers and these people are a very important contribution for their generation. One famous mathematician is Martha Euphemia Lofton Haynes. Martha was the first African American…
we've got 10 people who would beg to differ. These 10 smartest people of all time are not only incredibly accomplished, but they're also insanely smart. Check out the full list below. A child prodigy who is now considered to be the greatest German mathematician of all time, Carl Gauss had an estimated IQ between 250 and 300. Gauss was particularly adept in the study of electromagnetism.English physicist Thomas Young had an IQ between 185 and 200. He studied physiology, light, vision and…
Ada also accomplished mathematician, which it was very rare for women in the era back then that she lived in. Ada was important in the World of Math because she excelled in math and also had a lifelong interest in numbers and number theory..In 1833, Ada met the brilliant mathematician named Charles Babbage who she became lifelong friends with, Ada was overly intrigued with his idea about a “Analytical…
Pi and Proof Movies Review Proof is a movie that shows Robert’s struggle to make a mathematical proof to a mathematical problem or theory that the viewer was not made to understand. Robert is a renowned mathematician and had a legacy of solving extensive mathematical issues. However, he wasn’t able to prove the most important aspect of mathematics that he was working on. He developed a mental situation which made him lose touch with reality and eventually dies. The mathematical problem he was…
Integrals have been around for hundreds of years and have been used in several ways to solve complicated math problems. An integral is a function that expresses the area under the curve of a graph of a function. The first time the technique was brought forward was by a greek astronomer Eudoxus in the 370 BC. He used the technique called as the method of exhaustion which helped him find area or volume. The way he achieved this was using infinite numbers of division. Later Archimedes came along…
Busseaun.As for his mother, Marguerite Dupont, is the daughter of Françoise Brison. His life growing up there was no complication since he was able to attend school with education opportunities which lead to where is now being famous for being a mathematician. He went to a cloister school, studied law in 1558 at the University of Poitiers, and graduating with a Bachelor of Laws degree in 1559-60, but for four years later abandoned it to enter the service of Antoinette d’Aubeterre, mother of…

To what Extent did Leonardo da Vinci Contribute to Math, Art, and Science? The Renaissance was a rebirth of Greek and Roman ideas, that took place in the late fourteenth through early seventeenth century. The rebirth of human reason began in Italy and particularly in Florence. Italy had been rapidly moving away from the medieval era. The Renaissance movement had begun on a scholarly level, with humanists writers, but was clearly linked with the scientific developments, change, and growth of…
