so is the consensus that Gauss is the GOAT mathematician

Hmm, Euler looks a little different in the picture

although he was a douchbag roman catholic

can someone tell me what Grothendieck did?

i see his name thrown out on /sci all the time, like he was a mathematical god or something?

>>8615882
He was edgy and stateless.

He's a badass but he didn't go deep, he didn't stay in one field. He's like a kid with ADD.

That's exactly what's good about him

As if Gauss or Euler stayed in one field. They all did physics and computation too.

Eh, yea, I know. Point taken I guess. It just seems to me that Gauss and Euler stayed closer to math and physics than Von Neumann.

>>8616140

Read what he had to say about Cantor and then we'll talk.

>>8616104

Who am I looking at, anon?

>>8617439
G.H. Hardy and John Littlewood

>>8615838
yeah either Gauss or Euler.

ITT undergrad brainlets who think working on Hatcher or baby's first category theory is an accomplishment and believe they have either the mathematical talent or experience to assess greater minds than they.

Quick you have one minute to add up every integer from 1 to 100 (without a calculator).
