1 Mathematicians By: Ethan brown

2 Aryabhatta While Europe was in its early Dark Age, Aryabhatta advanced arithmetic, algebra, elementary analysis, and especially trigonometry, using the decimal system. Aryabhatta is sometimes called the father of algebra. He was among the ancient scholars who realized the earth rotated daily on an axis.

9 Leonhard The publication of many articles and a book called mechanica. In 1733 it was Euler who was appointed to this senior chair of mathematics.

10 Euler Maupertuis was the president of the Berlin Academ. Maupertuis and Leonhard became two great friends.
