Leonard Euler (1707-1783)
- Leonard Euler, the dominant mathematical figure of his century and the most prolific mathematician ever, was also an astronomer, physicist, botanist, and chemist, and an expert in oriental languages. His work was the first to give the function concept the prominence that it has in mathematics today. Euler's collected books and papers fill 72 volumes. This doesn't count his enormous correspondence to approximately 300 addresses. His introductory Algebra text, written originally in German (Euler was Swiss), is still available in English translation.
