Johann would come to influence young Euler in the years to come.
His father was a friend of the Bernoulli brothers, including Johan Bernoulli (1667–1748) who at that time was regarded as one of the best mathematicians in the world. Early LifeĮuler was born in Basel on 15 April 1707. In fact, it has been estimated that almost a third of all the science and mathematics written in the eighteenth century, was by Euler! We will first get a feel for his origin, then we shall immerse ourselves deep into his thoughts and beautiful mathematics.
The results shown here have been chosen carefully but are in no imaginable way exhaustive.
Leonhard euler fun facts full#
I will try to blend stories, facts, and easy-to-follow mathematical proofs (as Euler would have written them) in full detail so that in the end, the reader should be left with a good feeling and a desire to learn more. Reading this essay, hopefully you will get a feeling of timelessness and a glimpse into the beauty of the elegance, art, and eternal truth of mathematics. My approach to his work will be both in terms of results, historical remarks, and some curiosities along the way. The story is about Leonhard Euler (1707–1783).
This is a story about one of the greatest minds in history, and about the mysteries and beauty surrounding his legacy.
