Having done a LOT of math in the past few decades, Gauss surely stands out as one of the greatest. But I must say, in my opinion, looking back, Euler just takes the cake - clearly. To me his body of work is just absolutely mind-blowing. His reach and variety is just almost infinite - and he never stopped. During a time when people died young, he was still pumping out quality work into his 70s. If I have to pick a favourite of their work, to me Gauss is easy, the Theorema Egregium is really remarkable. When it comes to Euler, I could not even know where to start. Probably 100 times I just sat there and was in awe how he managed to dream these things up. It just feels like they may have had the same intellect, but Eulers imagination stretched quite a bit farther. There was just no limit to where he could go. He lives in a league of his own - there will never be another like him. There is a reason where there are like a million constants, identities, formulas, equations etc named after him. He was the one and only god-king. Just my thoughts.

With all due respect, the title of Greatest Ever Mathematician thus far should go to Leonhard Euler. Euler worked in almost all areas of mathematics, including geometry, infinitesimal calculus, trigonometry, algebra, and number theory. Besides, he made significant contributions to Physics as well. In many ways, Euler was to Mathematics what Newton was to Mathematics. Gauss was the prince, while Euler was the benevolent Emperor in the Kingdom of Mathematics !

Carl Friedrich Gauss, often called the "Prince of Mathematicians," was a true pioneer in science and mathematics. His groundbreaking contributions to number theory, geometry, and analysis laid the foundation for many modern advancements. Beyond mathematics, his work in physics, astronomy, and geodesy showcased his versatility and genius. Gauss's ability to solve complex problems with elegance continues to inspire mathematicians and scientists worldwide. His life is a shining example of how curiosity and intellect can drive humanity forward, leaving an enduring legacy of brilliance and innovation that shapes our world to this day.

One of the most amazing contributions of Gauss to science was non-Euclidean geometry.
Non-Euclidean geometry describes spaces with curvature, like the surface of a sphere.
Gauss had the insight that space may be curved, and even conducted experiments to find out.
Einstein much later used non-Euclidean geometry for his theory of General Relativity, which states that gravity is caused by the curvature of space-time.
Gauss's intuition that space may be curved was pure genius!

Gauss is what happens when huge talent and opportunity mix while sustained by hard work fueled by genuine passion. Many have the talent but lack opportunity. Others have both but lose passion and burn out. Many have passion but even hard work can't compensate for their lack of natural talent. Gauss just steamrolled through all of these variables.

The problem I have with naming people as the "greatest mathematician" is that it does a great disservice to those giants who came before them, those who developed maths from the beginning of thought. Without their work, where would people like Gauss and Euler begin their work?

More on the connection between Gauss and General Relativity.
Gauss directed his student Bernhard Riemann to develop the geometry of curved space. So Riemann developed differential geometry and introduced the curvature tensor.
Einstein later applied Riemann's differential geometry to develop his General Theory of Relativity.
But it wasn't just mere coincidence that Riemann's differential geometry formed the basis of General Relativity. It was by design, because Gauss and Riemann wanted to develop a geometry to describe curved space.
Einstein then realized that a curved space can explain gravity, and that was his genius connection.

CG (the prince of mathematics and a king of number theory) was a creative and incomparable genius of pure and applied mathematics. 🖐️🖐️ And he knew numbers especially prime numbers very well... His great conjecture on the distribution of primes that later became the Prime Number Theorem is mind-boggling for which the great Euler could not imagined possible. Go CG! 👍👍

If there was one flaw in Gauss' rich mathematical life, it was that he refused to read Abel's proof for the insolvability theorem of quintic equation and just tossed it to the trash bin. Sadly Abel died too young, if only Gauss was willing to listen to him.

He made substantial contributions to mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions, including solutions to mathematics
and problems then considered unsolvable.
As far as mathematicians go, G.H Hardy from Cambridge gave himself a score of 25, J. E. Littlewood 30, David Hilbert 80 and Ramanujan 100.

Thank you for that story, i also discovered when i was studying in Göttingen- Visiting all the pictures you showed , i got a backlash to my times of studying there. I admired Gauss , looked it all up and even the house, he lived in. The street was later named after him Gaussstrasse. Also, i knew and recognized the points, where he did his triangulations.You have found and shown the right pictures of the small hills, Lower Saxony ( as the former Kingdom of Hannover) is now called, has to offer for that. In the flat marschlands, near the North Sea, he used church towers. The old Observatory is still standing and in use, offers lectures for visitors. Göttingen was and still is such a famous science place and also home to the last universal scientist and genius Gottfied Wilhelm Leibnitz. I don't know, how many Nobel Prices went to Göttingen, but there are quite a few, namely in physics. Windtunnels and the groundbreaking facts of aerodynamics were also founded there. I was fascinated and changed my studying to math, physics, and philosophy there.

Focusing on a single individual can overlook the influence of different cultures on the development of mathematics. Cultures such as India, ancient Greece, and China all contributed greatly to the development of mathematics. For example, ancient Indian mathematicians such as Brahmagupta and Bhaskara contributed greatly to concepts such as zero and the quadratic equation, but few people know their names in discussions about who was the greatest mathematician.

You missed the opportunity to contrast Carl Friedrich Gauß's confession to be poor in his wedding proposal with his wealth at the end of his life. He had a knack for numbers, and therefore invested his money well, always with the fear to lose it all (poverty-driven behaviour). He was said to be really mean with his money. In the end, he was a multi-millionaire by todays numbers and a very well-regarded man in society.

Forgive me, doesn’t the fundamental theorem of of arithmetic (@ 6:36) talk about composite rather than whole numbers?
A non-composite whole number is basically a prime number and that means it cannot be factorises by 2 or more prime numbers, right?
Please do correct me if I’m wrong

Cindy, your voice is very soothing and I loved the content too. The way I remember learning about Gauss was that he was probably the most recent mathematician who had a command of all major branches of mathematics. Rather than the greatest mathematician, he was the most influential one. After Gauss passed, maths branched out so voluminously that one person having a comprehensive grasp over it all was just too difficult. Not that Gauss was not a great mathematician in his own right, but he stood at a particular point in history when one great mathematician could do that.

He may have made a mistake calculating his birthday depending on whether he used the Julian or Gregorian calendar. Ben Franklin switched the US from the Julian to the Gregorian in Sept 1752. We lost 11 days over night. There was pandemonium in the streets over it. Some parts of Europe switched the Gregorian before this time. It's why old Christmas is Jan 5. Its why many Orthodox Christians celebrate Christmas in January. The difference between the two calendars today is 14 days.

1:25 The actual calculation he probably used was (1+99=100, 2+98=100, 3+97=100, etc.) x 49 = 4900. To which he then added the 100 and the 50 which quickly gives a total of 5050. Probably all done in his head, no pen and paper needed. He was about 7 y.o.

Gauss saying he'd already solved non-Euclidean geometry after Bolyai published is a 'could have, should have, would have' Bolyai stuck his neck out where Gauss didn't
contrast this with Lagrange who formalises the principle of least action using Euler's new methods, Euler is super happy that Langrange has elevated the entire field and gives credit to Maupertuis (deceased) and Lagrange.

I saw another source that said Pascal did that trick with the sum of all integers 1 through 100. Only that source said he did it by pairing numbers that totaled 100. There are 49 pairs for 4900 (beginning with 1+99 and ending with 49+51). Then the 50 and 100 are left over to total 5050.
So there are lots of myths about some of these mathematicians.

I don't know why there was any controversy over "non-Euclidian geometry." It's not non-Euclidian; it's just non-planar. It's not mathematical "heresy".
In fact, if one accepts the definition of a line as being the shortest distance between two points, then Euclid was correct. Non-Euclidian "lines" aren't lines. They're arcs.

There is actually a mathematical ''riddle'' i invented, and i didnt found a solution for it after 20 years of thinking about it.
Everyone whom i told it so far can be categorized in two groups: one group of those people think: the solution is simple , while providing only wrong solutions (i myself found solutions for my riddle for specific dimensions, but i didnt found a solution for n-dimensions). The other group doesnt comes with any solutions whatsoever but is convinced: that i didnt wrote the question in the necesserly precise manner ''and thats why they cant solve it''.
The very few (and thats indeed only a hand full in those 20 years), who found solutions only found solutions i already found... for specific dimension numbers.
The more i think about my riddle, the more i think, it could be a millenial problem of math.
Anyway... i just wrote this, because i miss a genius like Gauss, who probably would give me the n-dimensional solution in one day.
If someone is interested, i can explain the riddle. But that someone should be aware, that he will fall in the mentioned 2 categories with 99% probability... and 1 % probability he (or she) will only find specific-dimensional solution, like i already have.

if Carl was born in 19th century then today nobody would be recognized Einstein as a great scientists. Einstein had got privilege as he was working in a patent office so he had got too many ideas to revealed his thoughts especially E = MC2. But Gauss was born in 1777 and died in 1855 but had also made a law on electricity so called Gauss law of electric field which is still students learn in the school. Gauss was talking about electric field and charges at the time when electricity was still not discovered. if Gauss was born in 1877 then today world would have Quantum computers.

It’s a little bit sad that you didn’t mention his last daughter Therese Staufenau (nee Gauſs, obviously, 1816–1864) at all. She took on the duty of the household after her mother, Gauſs’s second wife, died. She only married after that. Without her, it’s likely Carl Gauſs couldn’t have continued his mathematical works.

Very interesting thank you. But I was waiting for maybe one of the most important contributions of Gauss to Mathematics. The proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra - not from the Arithmetic.
Interesting story. It was his PhD thesis and, at that time, there were two different "proofs" of this theorem. So his thesis was essentially a three part work:
1. The first proof is wrong.
2. The second proof? Also wrong.
3. Don't worry. Mine is right.

Carl said that anyone can make his discoveries if they spent as much hours thinking about maths as he did, contradicting himself when he told his son that he did not have the aptitude for maths, but rather to do law. It is one of the biggest lies to think of human intelligence in terms of certain distinct fields e.g maths, language...Don't even talk about IQ tests, as they really only confirm extremes which needed no IQ tests to begin with. Just a circular way to confirm garbage. Everybody has intellectual power in one field/area or another, which are made visible to the public when they become more developed, are demanded or meet opportunity. Then, we have fields like maths that is a demand, because of the important role it plays in our lives in building, construction, aero-dyamics, space travel and so much more. So, proud people at these universities have taken smarts in these fields/areas to mean that they are more intelligent then others. This has fostered intellectual arrogance. Prodigies are normally gifted in more then one field/area, and with extremely high development in those areas from an early age, but the rest of us need to develop the gift/s and if they discover their own intellectual giftings, no maths genius will be able to own them. No math wiz will be able to beat Magnus Carlsen at chess, Warren Buffett at business, Adam Worth at crime, Micki Maze at gambling, Napoleon at war, Thomas Edison at inventing, Meyer Langsky at organised crime, Albert Gonzalez at hacking, Vincent Van Gogh at painting, Thomas Wolf at writing, Steve Jobs at leadership, Elon Musk at engineering, Michael Jackson at dancing, 2pac at rapping, Shakespeare at poetry, Richard Feynman at physics, James Watson at biology, Michael Faraday at electrical science and so much more. These are the tip of the iceburg for giftings that are more easily measurable. There are those gifting that are very hard to measure and who not recognised. Examples are those who have speaking gifts, manipulation gifts, extreme logical thinking gifts, real world strategy gifts, spacial and imaginative gifts, etc. It's crazy how a poor guy can walk into a casino for the first time and notice things no-one has seen in decades, and use those observations to win crazy amount of money even to get kicked out of the casino(check out Micki Maze). Be yourself to the fullest extent and you will learn your giftings.

If the story is true, it certainly did not take Gauss a few minutes to calculate the sum of the integers from 1 to 100, at most a second or two (it is actually not that hard - certainly not enough to make one a brilliant mathematician).

I don't think it's basically possible to say who is the greatest mathematician who ever lived because that depends on your definition of "great". For example, the father of geometry, Euclid, is probably the greatest mathematician who ever lived if we define "great" to be the ability to create something big out of almost nothing.

Great video. However, it would have been better to have used a map of the German Federation from the time of the narrative. It's quite confusing to use a current map. If this video had been made 40 years ago would one showing Germany divided have been used?

The video should be more rigorous with sources and references. Was he seven when he found the sum of natural numbers up to 100? Did he really discover non-Euclidean Geometry as he claims? Also, Lobachevski could be the first to discover one. And finally, I'd struggle to put Gauss over Euler's longevity or Galois' and Ramanujan's brilliance.

I suspect that Gauss proved the fundamental theorem of algebra somewhat later in life, and not in his youth, as you suggest. And IIRC he first proved that any equation can be factored in linear and quadratic factors and only later provided a proof with complex numbers. You rushed this video, it seems.

Time stamp (4:42) • Either the youtuber has an odd sense of humour or the 'compass' illustrated is the wrong one. It should be a divider also known as a compass. A compass is a drafting instrument used to draw circles, arcs, and curves. Actually, the correct term would be a ‘divider’, a tool used to measure and mark distances, typically used in conjunction with a straightedge or ruler.
Examples of dividers include the traditional two-legged divider, the adjustable lockable divider, and the joint calipers & dividers.

Of course, ALL of the non-European mathematicians are completely ignored. Very few people today realize the enormous influence Islamic and Persian mathematicians had on the subject, decades and perhaps even a century before the Europeans. Save for perhaps "algebra" named after a math book from the 9th century by Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi, very few equations or principles were named after the mathematicians of the Islamic Golden Age, unlike many Europeans whose ideas were essentially "borrowed" from the mathematicians of Persian and Islamic descent.

And even Gauss himself concluded that his son didn't have the "aptitude", which he must've known no amount of hard work could remedy. It was innate, his intelligence, and there's nothing wrong with admitting that.

Certain Cultures or Races, with all due respect, are not smarter or have an inclination for mathematics or science, the difference is the amount of time studying and practicing the subject. Is a cultural difference in my opinion, I hardly studied and got expelled from School, Twice, yet I still managed to finished a career…….and then worked in multi billion dollar project all over the world…..My teachers never though I would succeed…..Of course, there are Geniuses but this is innate talent rather then anything else and clear exceptions to the rule.

You should have asked a German how to pronounce German names (like Braunschweig, Göttingen, Osthoff, Eugen). My ears are bleeding.
Further, no one calls Gauß "Carl Gauss" when using his full name. It's Carl Friedrich Gauß.

Two nitpicks:
Gauß is written with ß. That may be transcribed with ss, but his name was not Gauss but Gauß.
See also, in this regard, the americanization of Eugen's name in
the article on Eugen Gauß in the Wikipedia.
There it is stated that the Gauß family lived in the RIGHT wing of the observatory, not the left (in the image you showed) as you stated.
