帕斯卡在数学方面的贡献

Pascal's Contribution to the Field of Mathematics

帕斯卡是一位高水平的数学天才,他对17世纪几个发展迅速的数学领域如射影几何、概率论、微积分等做出了重要的贡献。因此他可以说是17世纪的杰出科学家之一,在世界数学史上占有重要地位。本文对帕斯卡及其在数学方面的成就进行了介绍。

s Blaise Pascal （1623-1662） was a French mathemati- cian, physicist, inventor, writer and Christian philosopher. In the history of mathematics, Blaise Pascal was a mathematical genius of high order. Simultaneously, he made distinguished contribu- tions to several rapidly developing mathematical fields in the sev- enteenth century, such as projective geometry, the theory of probability, the calculus and so on. With these achievements he was undoubtedly one of the eminent scientists in the seventeenth century. This paper introduces his math achievements.
