Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: Pierre de Fermat (French pronunciation: ; 17 August 1601 or 1607/8 - 12 January 1665) was a French lawyer at the Parlement of Toulouse, France, and an amateur mathematician who is given credit for early developments that led to modern calculus. In particular, he is recognized for his discovery of an original method of finding the greatest and the smallest ordinates of curved lines, which is analogous to that of the then unknown differential calculus, as well as his research into the theory of numbers. He made notable contributions to analytic geometry, probability, and optics. He is best known for Fermat's Last Theorem, which he described in a note at the margin of a copy of Diophantus' Arithmetica. Fermat was born in Beaumont-de-Lomagne, Tarn-et-Garonne, France; the late 15th century mansion where Fermat was born is now a museum. He was of Basque origin. Fermat's father was a wealthy leather merchant and second consul of Beaumont-de-Lomagne. Pierre had a brother and two sisters and was almost certainly brought up in the town of his birth. There is little evidence concerning his school education, but it may have been at the local Franciscan monastery. Buste in the Salle des Illustres in Capitole de ToulouseHe attended the University of Toulouse before moving to Bordeaux in the second half of the 1620s. In Bordeaux he began his first serious mathematical researches and in 1629 he gave a copy of his restoration of Apollonius's De Locis Planis to one of the mathematicians there.

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In mathematics, Fermat's theorem is a theorem in real analysis, named after Pierre de Fermat. It gives a method to find local maxima and minima of differentiable functions on open sets by showing that every local extremum of the function is a stationary point (the function derivative is zero in that point). So, by using Fermat's theorem, the potential extremums of a function displaystyle f, with derivative displaystyle f', are found by solving an equation in displaystyle f'. Fermat's theorem gives only a necessary condition for extreme function values, and some stationary points are inflection points (not a maximum or minimum). The function's second derivative, if it exists, can determine if any stationary point is a maximum, minimum, or inflection point. ... Read more

Excerpt: André Téchiné (born 13 March 1943 at Valence-d'Agen (Tarn-et-Garonne) in France), is a French screenwriter and film director. He has had a long and distinguished career that placed him among the best post-New Wave French film directors. He belongs to a second generation of French film critics associated with Cahiers du cinéma who followed François Truffaut, Claude Chabrol, Jean-Luc Godard and others from criticism into film-making. Téchiné is noted for his elegant and emotionally charged films that often delve into the complexities of human condition and emotions. An intimist flavor pervades his work. One of the trademarks of his filmography is the lyrical examination of human relations in a sensitive but unsentimental way, as can be seen in his most acclaimed films: My Favorite Season (1993) and Wild Reeds (1994). André Téchiné was born on 13 March 1943 at Valence-d'Agen, a small town in the Midi-Pyrénées region, department of Tarn-et-Garonne, France. His family, of Spanish ancestry, owned a small business making agricultural equipment. He grew up in the south west French country side and in his adolescence acquired a passion for films. From 1952 to 1959 he went to a catholic boarding school in Montauban. He was allowed to leave the school only on Sunday afternoons when he would go to the cinema, although he often had to return before the screening ended. From 1959 he attended a secular state school, which exposed him to a different culture, with marxist teachers, a cine club and a film magazine...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=3459338 ... Read more

Le livre consiste d'articles Wikipedia sur : Lycée Pierre-De-Fermat, Lycée Saint-Sernin, le Caousou, Lycée Ozenne, Lycée Bellevue, Lycée Des Arènes. Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Le lycée Pierre-de-Fermat est un établissement d'enseignement secondaire et supérieur, situé Parvis des Jacobins à Toulouse à proximité immédiate du Capitole ; il occupe un espace considérable dans le centre-ville dont l'hôtel de Bernuy. Il est attenant au cloître et à l'église des Jacobins. Le lycée compte aujourd'hui plus de 2000 élèves dont 950 préparationnaires étudiants en Classes Préparatoires. Il est réputé pour ses excellents résultats au baccalauréat et aux concours d'entrée aux grandes écoles. Le lycée toulousain fut fondé en 1806, mais il succédait à des établissements d'enseignement déjà anciens. Le premier collège de la ville de Toulouse est fondé en 1560 par les frères doctrinaires sous le nom de collège de l'Esquile. Un deuxième collège fait son apparition quelques années après, en 1566. Confié aux jésuites, l'établissement est installé dans l'hôtel de Bernuy et est l'ancêtre du lycée Fermat. Il compte jusqu'à 1200 élèves, possède un internat et assure la gratuité des études. L'enseignement y est surtout littéraire. L'expulsion des jésuites transforme l'établissement en « collège royal » en 1763. Sous l'impulsion de l'archevêque Loménie de Brienne, le collège se modernise et s'ouvre aux sciences. Il conserve une bonne partie de son corps enseignant et fonctionne sur un mode provisoire durant la Révolution. Il est ensuite réorganisé en École centrale de Haute-Garonne (1796-1804), époque marquée par une très grande liberté sur les plans de la pédagogie et de la discipline. À la suite de la loi de 1802 établissant les lycées, et après de nombreuses ...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The philosophy of probability presents problems chiefly in matters of epistemology and the uneasy interface between mathematical concepts and ordinary language as it is used by non-mathematicians. Probability theory is an established field of study in mathematics. It has its origins in correspondence discussing the mathematics of games of chance between Blaise Pascal and Pierre de Fermat in the seventeenth century, and was formalized and rendered axiomatic as a distinct branch of mathematics by Andrey Kolmogorov in the twentieth century. In its axiomatic form, mathematical statements about probability theory carry the same sort of epistemological confidence shared by other mathematical statements in the philosophy of mathematics. ...
