Calculus IV: D'17 - Section D03 & D04


Education Biographies of Great Mathematicians



A huge number of mathematicians have contributed to the topics covered in this course subtitled Multivariable Calculus - in Geometry in 3-space, vector analysis, partial differentiation of functions of two and more variables, multiple (particularly, doudle and triple) integration. However, there are a few of them whose work might be considered as crucial and highly valuable for these areas. The facts on their lives and major accomplishments should be important supplements to the course materials.

Find a moment to read their brief biographies at the Turnbull Server of the School of Mathematical and Computational Sciences at the University of St. Andrews, Scotland, U.K.
