EUCLID
Euclid may have been a student of Aristotle. He founded the school of
mathematics at the great university of Alexandria.He introduced the Mersenne
primes and observed that (M2+M)/2 is always perfect (in the sense of
Pythagoras).
Like Abel, Ramanujan was a self-taught prodigy who lived in a country distant
from his mathematical peers, and suffered from poverty: childhood dysentery
and vitamin deficiencies probably led to his early death. Yet he produced 4000
theorems or conjectures in number theory, algebra, and combinatorics.
