Who invented a very creative way to add a long list of consecutive numbers together?
I believe that it was Leonhard Euler (1707-1783), who as a schoolboy founda neat way of doing it.=============================Answer #2:I believe that was Johann Carl Friedrich Gauss. The point of that famous storywasn't the fact that he did it, or the way he did it, but how old he was whenhe did it.
Why mathematics is the most basic science?
The German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss described mathematics one correctly as the quenn of all sciences. The German philosopher Immanuel Kant once remarked that one can only call a discipline a science as long as there is mathematics in it. Mathematics is the most basic science, because every other science (physics, chemistry, biology, geology, computer science) uses mathematical theorems to answer questions in this science. Mathematics does not depend on any other science. Mathematicians do mathematics for the sake of mathematics. That is why mathematics is the most fundamental science.
Why would you choose Gauss Jordan over Gauss seidel numeric methods?
It will solve the solution "exactly", but will take a very very long time for large matrices. Gauss Jordan method will require O(n^3) multiplication/divisions and O(n^3) additions and subtractions. Gauss seidel in reality you may not know when you have reached a solution. So, you may have to define the difference between succesive iterations as a tolerance for error. But, most of the time GS is much prefured in cases of large matrices.
Can you live for 121 years?
