Adrien-Marie Legendre

    September 18, 1752 – January 9, 1833

    Adrien-Marie Legendre was a French mathematician whose work laid the groundwork for many crucial concepts in mathematics. He is recognized for his significant improvements to Euclid's Elements, which streamlined geometry for future generations. Legendre made substantial contributions to number theory, analysis, and differential equations, including the development of the least squares method and the study of prime distribution. His investigations into elliptic functions and transformation methods in mechanics and thermodynamics underscore his lasting impact on scientific thought.
