Answer 1

Hi,

I suggest you to choose Leonhard Euler.

Below you'll find some information about his activity - in order to help you get a decision.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Leonhard Euler (April 15, 1707 Basel, Switzerland - September 18, 1783 St Petersburg, Russia) was a Swiss mathematician and physicist. He is considered to be the dominant mathematician of the 18th century and one of the greatest mathematicians of all time; he is certainly among the most prolific, with collected works filling over 70 volumes.

Euler developed many important concepts and proved numerous lasting theorems in diverse areas of mathematics, from calculus to number theory to topology. In the course of this work, he introduced much of modern mathematical terminology, defining the concept of a function, and its notation, such as sin, cos, and tan for the trigonometric functions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I suggest you to choose Leonhard Euler also because you might find a lot of information about him on internet (so you don't need to go in library to read tens of books).

Gottfried Von Leibniz- invented modern day calculus
Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (pen name: Lewis Caroll) wrote math books as well as Alice In Wonderland and lectured in math as well

For further details, look up the people. There is TONS of information on them (I make my students do this) and it is easy to find. Good luck.
