- Johann Carl Friedrich Gauss (30 April 1777 – 23 February 1855) was a German
mathematician and scientist who contributed significantly to many fields, including
number theory, statistics, analysis, differential geometry, geodesy, geophysics,
electrostatics, astronomy and optics. Sometimes referred to as the Princeps
mathematicorum (Latin, "the Prince of Mathematicians" or "the foremost of
mathematicians") and "greatest mathematician since antiquity,"
Gauss had a remarkable influence in many fields of mathematics and science and
is ranked as one of history's most influential mathematicians In his 1799 doctorate
in absentia, A new proof of the theorem that every integral rational algebraic
function of one variable can be resolved into real factors of the first or second
degree, Gauss proved the fundamental theorem of algebra which states that every
non-constant single-variable polynomial over the complex numbers has at least
one root.
