Pascal, Blaise (16231662) Pascal was born in France and was encouraged by his father to study science. He met Fermat and was inspired to work on applied science problems. As early as 1640, he wrote an essay on conic sections and earned praise for his work from Descartes Even though he suffered from poor health, Pascal designed an "arithmetic machine" to perform computations for tax collecting. He completed the first operating model in 1642 and built fifty more during the next decade. The machine was a small box with eight dials, each geared to a drum that displayed the digits in a register window. Pascal also contributed to the development of differential calculus Later, he became interested in the physics of fluids under pressure and other components and concepts of hydrostatics. After poor health adversely affected his pursuits in science, Pascal became interested in games of chance. This led to his study of probability and his contributions to the foundations of the calculus of probability. Poor health and interest in religious affairs kept him from pursuing mathematics full time; however, he still continued to produce important mathematical results in geometry and algebra.
