      I would add Newton and Riemann to the list as well. Come to think of it it's kind of unfair to make such a list, for many reasons. What is harder? Standing on the shoulders of titans and using the knowledge they created to try and solve more and more complex problems that remain unsolved or be an early pioneer?
      Euler was undoubtedly a genius but he tried to prove Fermat's theorem and failed. (He proved it for n=3 but couldn't for n>3). Andrew Wiles, a contemporary of ours, proved it. Does that mean Wiles>Euler? I don't think it does, I would bet Wiles himself would dismiss the comparison as ridiculous. He had mathematical tools at his disposal Euler could never have dreamed of. But technically he did succeed where Euler failed, so what do we do with that?
      The answer is nothing. We don't make top 10's mathematics is not a pop music chart.

    One of the most amazing contributions of Gauss to science was non-Euclidean geometry.
    Non-Euclidean geometry describes spaces with curvature, like the surface of a sphere.
    Gauss had the insight that space may be curved, and even conducted experiments to find out.
    Einstein much later used non-Euclidean geometry for his theory of General Relativity, which states that gravity is caused by the curvature of space-time.
    Gauss's intuition that space may be curved was pure genius!

    With all due respect, the title of Greatest Ever Mathematician thus far should go to Leonhard Euler. Euler worked in almost all areas of mathematics, including geometry, infinitesimal calculus, trigonometry, algebra, and number theory. Besides, he made significant contributions to Physics as well. In many ways, Euler was to Mathematics what Newton was to Mathematics. Gauss was the prince, while Euler was the benevolent Emperor in the Kingdom of Mathematics !

      The greatest ever is just a title which is different for person to person , it's very hard to find the objective answer to this , it's like asking who is the most prettiest person who ever lived . There are few great contender to this title and you can argue for any of them . But this argument is kind of pointless because you it have no use and neither can you ever verify your answer to be correct. For example if I ask you which religion is best / which god is best . There is no definite answer to this questions. So you can think who is the greatest mathematicians as same question as this .

    Having done a LOT of math in the past few decades, Gauss surely stands out as one of the greatest. But I must say, in my opinion, looking back, Euler just takes the cake - clearly. To me he body of work is just absolutely mind-blowing. His reach and variety is just almost infinite - and he never stopped. During a time when people died young, he was still pumping out quality work into his 70s. If I have to pick a favourite of their work, to me Gauss is easy, the Theorema Egregium is really remarkable. When it comes to Euler, I could not even know where to start. Probably 100 times I just sat there and was in awe how he managed to dream these things up. It just feels like they may have had the same intellect, but Eulers imagination stretched quite a bit farther. There was just no limit to where he could go. He lives in a league of his own - there will never be another like him. There is a reason where there are like a million constants, identities, formulas, equations etc named after him. He was the one and only god-king. Just my thoughts.

    Don't forget Archimedes. He developed the first steps of calculus 2000 years before Newton and Leibnitz. I really like his solutions - I always say it looks like calculus done by aliens.

    If there was one flaw in Gauss' rich mathematical life, it was that he refused to read Abel's proof for the insolvability theorem of quintic equation and just tossed it to the trash bin. Sadly Abel died too young, if only Gauss was willing to listen to him.

    Now that's what you call a real man!

    2.)) Chose his passion over money and made it his profession.
    3.)) Loved his wife , and raised a family.
    4.) Though things did not turn out to be good with his personal life , he didn't cry about , and focused on producing ground breaking works .

    Time stamp (4:42) • Either the youtuber has an odd sense of humour or the 'compass' illustrated is the wrong one. It should be a divider also known as a compass. A compass is a drafting instrument used to draw circles, arcs, and curves. Actually, the correct term would be a ‘divider’, a tool used to measure and mark distances, typically used in conjunction with a straightedge or ruler.
    Examples of dividers include the traditional two-legged divider, the adjustable lockable divider, and the joint calipers & dividers.

    Carl said that anyone can make his discoveries if they spent as much hours thinking about maths as he did, contradicting himself when he told his son that he did not have the aptitude for maths, but rather to do law. It is one of the biggest lies to think of human intelligence in terms of certain distinct fields e.g maths, language...Don't even talk about IQ tests, as they really only confirm extremes which needed no IQ tests to begin with. Just a circular way to confirm garbage. Everybody has intellectual power in one field/area or another, which are made visible to the public when they become more developed, are demanded or meet opportunity. Then, we have fields like maths that is a demand, because of the important role it plays in our lives in building, construction, aero-dyamics, space travel and so much more. So, proud people at these universities have taken smarts in these fields/areas to mean that they are more intelligent then others. This has fostered intellectual arrogance. Prodigies are normally gifted in more then one field/area, and with extremely high development in those areas from an early age, but the rest of us need to develop the gift/s and if they discover their own intellectual giftings, no maths genius will be able to own them. No math wiz will be able to beat Magnus Carlsen at chess, Warren Buffett at business, Adam Worth at crime, Micki Maze at gambling, Napoleon at war, Thomas Edison at inventing, Meyer Langsky at organised crime, Albert Gonzalez at hacking, Vincent Van Gogh at painting, Thomas Wolf at writing, Steve Jobs at leadership, Elon Musk at engineering, Michael Jackson at dancing, 2pac at rapping, Shakespeare at poetry, Richard Feynman at physics, James Watson at biology, Michael Faraday at electrical science and so much more. These are the tip of the iceburg for giftings that are more easily measurable. There are those gifting that are very hard to measure and who not recognised. Examples are those who have speaking gifts, manipulation gifts, extreme logical thinking gifts, real world strategy gifts, spacial and imaginative gifts, etc. It's crazy how a poor guy can walk into a casino for the first time and notice things no-one has seen in decades, and use those observations to win crazy amount of money even to get kicked out of the casino(check out Micki Maze). Be yourself to the fullest extent and you will learn your giftings.
