Extractions: Carl Friedrich Gauss Carl Friedrich Gauss (1777-1855) is considered to be the greatest German mathematician of the nineteenth century. His discoveries and writings influenced and left a lasting mark in the areas of number theory, astronomy, geodesy, and physics, particularly the study of electromagnetism. Gauss was born in Brunswick, Germany, on April 30, 1777, to poor, working-class parents. His father labored as a gardner and brick-layer and was regarded as an upright, honest man. However, he was a harsh parent who discouraged his young son from attending school, with expectations that he would follow one of the family trades. Luckily, Gauss' mother and uncle, Friedrich, recognized Carl's genius early on and knew that he must develop this gifted intelligence with education. While in arithmetic class, at the age of ten, Gauss exhibited his skills as a math prodigy when the stern schoolmaster gave the following assignment: "Write down all the whole numbers from 1 to 100 and add up their sum." When each student finished, he was to bring his slate forward and place it on the schoolmaster's desk, one on top of the other. The teacher expected the beginner's class to take a good while to finish this exercise. But in a few seconds, to his teacher's surprise, Carl proceeded to the front of the room and placed his slate on the desk. Much later the other students handed in their slates. At the end of the classtime, the results were examined, with most of them wrong. But when the schoolmaster looked at Carl's slate, he was astounded to see only one number: 5,050. Carl then had to explain to his teacher that he found the result because he could see that, 1+100=101, 2+99=101, 3+98=101, so that he could find 50 pairs of numbers that each add up to 101. Thus, 50 times 101 will equal 5,050.

Extractions: Carl Friedrich Gauss (1777-1855) Carl Friedrich Gauss is considered one of the greatest mathematicians of all time. He is a creator in the logical-mathematical domain as he contributed many ideas to the fields of mathematics, astronomy, and physics. He contributed greatly to the different areas of mathematics like linear algebra, calculus, and number theory. Unlike some of the creators Gardner studied, Gauss seemed to be a truly decent man. He never tried to criticize his rivals or make himself stand above the rest. He solved problems because he loved math. Some theorems that we credit to being solved by someone else were really discovered earlier by Gauss. He did not publish everything because he did not have time to finish it all. That is why I hold Gauss higher than some of the other creators we read about. He was a decent man who worked for the love of math. I also greatly admire his work. Any mathematician who can prove so many different ideas in so many different areas of mathematics is truly a genius. As a child, Gauss was a prodigy.

Extractions: Gauss, Carl Friedrich. Carl Friedrich Gauss, b. Apr. 30, 1777, d. Feb. 23, 1855, was a German mathematician who dominated the mathematical community during and after his lifetime. A child prodigy, Gauss taught himself reading and arithmetic by the age of three. Recognizing his talent, the Duke of Brunswick in 1792 provided him with a stipend to allow him to pursue his education. While still attending Caroline College (1792-95), Gauss formulated the least-squares method and a conjecture on the distribution of prime numbers among all numbers; the latter was proved by Jacques Hadamard in 1896. During this period, Gauss did not have access to a good mathematical library and therefore rediscovered many theorems that had already been accepted. The situation changed in 1795, when he went to Gottingen with its excellent library. In 1795, Gauss discovered the fundamental theorem of quadratic residues, which deals with the concept of congruence in number theory. In 1796 he made his first mark as a serious mathematician by proving the possibility of constructing a regular 17-sided polygon using only a ruler and a compass. The next 4 years were very productive. Ideas came to him so rapidly that he could pursue only some of them. In 1799 the University of Helmstedt granted Gauss a Ph.D. degree for a dissertation that gave the first proof of the fundamental theorem of algebra.

Extractions: [on his engagement] Mathematics is the queen of the sciences and number theory is the queen of mathematics. The total number of Dirichlet's publications is not large: jewels are not weighed on a grocery scale. If others would but reflect on mathematical truths as deeply and continuously as I have, they would make my discoveries. When a philosopher says something that is true then it is trivial. When he says something that is not trivial then it is false. Sophie Germain proved to the world that even a woman can accomplish something in the most rigorous and abstract of sciences.

Extractions: konnte früher rechnen als sprechen ... zumindest behauptete er das selbst scherzhaft von sich. Den Anekdoten nach war der am 30. April 1777 in Braunschweig geborene Gauß tatsächlich ein mathematisches Wunderkind, der als dreijähriger bereits den Vater bei der Lohnabrechnung korrigiert haben soll. In der Grundschule berechnete er die Summe der Zahlen von 1 bis 100 nach dem Gesetz s = n(n+1)/2 und als 18jähriger entdeckte er die Konstruktion des regulären Siebzehnecks (mit Zirkel und Lineal). Gauß studierte in Göttingen, promovierte 1799 in Helmstedt und reüssierte mit der Bahnberechnung des Kleinplaneten Ceres. Bereits bei dieser Arbeit setzte er seine Methode der kleinsten Quadrate und Überlegungen zur Zufallsverteilung (Glockenkurve) ein, die noch gar nicht veröffentlicht waren. Das brachte ihm 1805 den Ruf als Direktor an die neue Sternwarte in Göttingen ein, die aber erst 1816/17 fertiggestellt wurde.

Gauss was extremely careful and rigorous in all his work, insisting on a complete proof of any result before he would publish it. As a consequence, he made many discoveries that were not credited to him and had to be remade by others later; for example, he anticipated Bolyai and Lobachevsky in non-Euclidean geometry, Jacobi in the double periodicity of elliptic functions, Cauchy in the theory of functions of a complex variable, and Hamilton in quaternions. However, his published works were enough to establish his reputation as one of the greatest mathematicians of all time. Gauss early discovered the law of quadratic reciprocity and, independently of Legendre, the method of least squares. He showed that a regular polygon of

Extractions: Gauss, Carl Friedrich (17771855) Gauss was born in Brunswick, Germany. He attended the University of Göttingen. Gauss contributed immensely to both applied and pure mathematics. The list of Gausss accomplishments in science and mathematics is astonishing, ranging from the invention of the electric telegraph (with Wilhelm Weber in 1833) to the development of a theory of planetary orbits to the development of an accurate theory of non-Euclidean geometry. Gauss was very careful to make all his publications and proofs of theorems perfect. Still he is credited with many results in algebra, number theory, differential equations , and calculus . This major work was entitled Disquisitiones arithmeticae He also published Theoria motus corporum celestium Gauss served as the professor of mathematics at Göttingen. Gauss's presence automatically made Göttingen the center of the mathematical world. But Gauss was remote and unapproachableparticularly to beginning students. He gave the first satisfactory proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra. Gauss's discoveries were so important and numerous that he is often called the Prince of Mathematics.
