Why Is Augustin-Louis Cauchy Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Baron Augustin-Louis Cauchy was a French mathematician, engineer, and physicist who made pioneering contributions to several branches of mathematics, including mathematical analysis and continuum mechanics. He was one of the first to state and rigorously prove theorems of calculus, rejecting the heuristic principle of the generality of algebra of earlier authors. He single-handedly founded complex analysis and the study of permutation groups in abstract algebra.
