Simon Stevin (1548/49 - 1620)
Simon was a mathematician, engineer, and good at science.
Simon Stevin very little in the 1400's. He wasn't born until 1548. In the 1580's he was a noted mathematician, and is credited with 'inventing'/standardizing the use of decimal numbers in calculation. He died in 1620.
Simon Stevin was a Flemish mathematician and engineer who lived primarily in the region that is now Belgium. He was born in Bruges around 1548 and later moved to the city of Antwerp, where he spent a significant part of his life. Stevin also spent time in the Dutch Republic, particularly in the city of Leiden, where he conducted much of his work.
