their genius drove them insane and eventually led them to commit suicide; however‚ their intelligence has greatly affected todays mathematics. This documentary discusses many of the questions that mathematical thinkers are trying to answer. As a child‚ Georg Cantor heard voices‚ which he believed was God‚ calling him into mathematics. Starting with Galileo‚ many mathematics could not understand the concept of infinity and why it is true; they decided to accept it‚ but not truly understand it. However

with his father’s permission‚ started to pursue science and mathematics. After this transfer‚ he started taking classes in mathematics from Moritz Stern and Johann Carl Friedrich Gauss. After a year at Gottingen‚ he moved to Berlin. While there‚ he studied under a few of the greatest mathematicians of all time for about two years. These were Jacobi‚ Steiner‚ and Eisenstein. After learning all about the new discoveries in mathematics from these men‚ he then returned to Göttingen to finish his doctoral

It was in the Town High School that Ramanujan came across a mathematics book by G. S. Carr called Synopsis of Elementary Results in Pure Mathematics. Ramanujan used this to teach himself mathematics. The book contained theorems‚ formulas and short proofs. It also contained an index to papers on pure mathematics. By 1904

The Pythagorean theorem (A^2 + B^2 = C^2) has been impacting all types of people and careers since it was first realized during Ancient Greece times. It is one of the most widely recognized theorems in the mathematics community‚ and used much more than the average person knows: whether you need need to know the dimensions of a bag or you need find the distance from location to another‚ the Pythagorean theorem can be used. Everyone who was taught this theorem in their first year of algebra continues
