(April 15, 1707 – September 18, 1783)
If the issue concerns mathematics, look no farther than Leonhard Euler. With nearly one thousand first class publications to his name, this Swiss genius is the greatest of all mathematicians. He was relentlessly prolific. His phenomenal brain-power enabled him to calculate as easily as folks breathe. This explains why he is deemed the preeminent algorist and was nicknamed “Analysis Incarnate”. Euler excelled in all branches of mathematics, uncovered links between various branches, standardized notations, proved many theorems, shattered every benchmark and pioneered new methodologies. During his 76 years lifetime, 1 out of every 3 maths publications in the world was by him. The great Pierre-Simon Laplace proclaimed him “The Master of all Mathematicians”. Carl Friedrich Gauss (The Prince of Mathematics) referred to his works as “irreplaceable best school for maths”; whereas André Weil asseverated that “no other mathematician attained such an indisputable leadership in all branches of mathematics as Euler did”. Stupendously brilliant, versatile and productive, he was the supreme sage whose sagacity transmogrified physical sciences. Not even his blindness (in 1766) could hinder him. While working at Russia’s Science Academy, colleagues marveled in disbelief as he mentally conjured mind-blowing disquisitions for his secretary to compile for publishing. No comparable novelty has ever been witnessed. The sheer quantity and quality of his works is breathtaking. Nobody else came close. Not Gauss! Not Newton! No one at all! The greatest and the most beautiful theorems have Euler footprints all over them. He was (and still remains) the mathematical champion of all the champions.
Hi, I love this website and the wonderful work you put into it. So many great stuffs here. Special thanks for this one about Leonhard Euler. I agree with Pierre-Simon Laplace. Euler is the master of all mathematicians.
Truly exceⅼlent. Keep ᥙp the good writings.
Great!
Monumental achievements!
I spent a lot of time searching for something similar to this. Only here I am satisfied. Thanks.
Hey there are using WordPress for your blog platform?
I’m new to the blog world but I’m trying to get started and create my own. Do you need any coding knowledge to make your own blog?
Any help would be really appreciated!
This is so cool.
I’m pleased to find this site, and I’ve bookmarked it.
What a befitting tribute! Euler was awesome.
Very good website
Awesome article!
I recently had my websites rebuilt and i am trying new ways to make it better.
Your design is nice and your posts are well-structured.
Great reviews, thanks.
I was wondering if you knew where I could get a captcha plugin for my comment form?
I’m using the same blog platform as yours and I’m having trouble finding one. Thank you.
You came up with a great list of mathematicians! I’m currently conducting my own survey on Facebook and it will be interesting to compare my results to yours. However, I’m not really happy with your list of the 100 greatest scientists of all time. Why isn’t Darwin on your list? In my opinion, he should certainly be in the top 5!
Hello David Terr,
Let me remind you that this work took over 15 years.
My four evaluative criteria are: overall Ability, Versatility, Productivity and Developmental Influences.
Despite Charles Darwin’s historical importance, his achievements fell short under these ranking criteria.
Thank you.
Awesome!
It fascinates me thinking about all he achieved as a blind man.
Class!
This is a perfect introduction.
Keep up the excellent works 🙂
Greetings from Ohio! I love the info you provided.
He is really awesome

Your writing style amazes me.
Aw, what a post.
Very interesting points!
Definitely worth all the time I’ve been spending here.
The one and only …
Enjoyed this, thank you.
Your posts are always well-delivered and engaging.
Very good blog. Cool.
Also the most successful math genius
It’s wonderful that his productivity increased even after he became blind.
Excellent info
Amazing is an understatement.
