User blog:Randy Savage Maniac/Carl Friedrick Gauss (Minipop)

Hello all

Since our beloved user Minipop can't stop taling about this Gaus figure, and no one knows who it is, I decided to write a little summary about him so we will all know who he is.



Carl Friedrich Gauss was a german mathematician and physical scientist. He contributed on many field in these sciences and is stometimes called The Prince op Mathematicians. He was born in 1777 in a poor family. His mother did not know when he was born. All she knew that it was on a wednesday, eight days before the day 'The Ascension of Jesus'' which itself always is fourty days after Easter. Gauss later puzzled out his own birthday using mathematics.

His intellectual abilities were discovered ny a Duke that send him to college. He later made many discoveries in the world of mathematiks that the most of us won't udnerstand, including me. He like discovered a construction of the heptadecagon and also discoverd that ebery posotive integer is respresentable as a sum of at most three triangular numbers in just a few days when he was not even 22. He later discovered much more and applied it on other thingsl ike astronomy and physics.

Conclusion: A very interesting man, who had a great mind. I just do not think he is ERB material since he is not all-known. EInstein was.. but more as a character, since just like with Gauss not everyone understands his work. But now I have read about him I have to praise his name. GO Gauss!
