| Leibniz is misspelled (and so is "theorem" in his clue). Also, some of these descriptions need some improvement. "Discovered a number which grows at a rate proportional to itself"—the number e itself doesn't grow at all; it's a fixed constant, 2.71828…. You're thinking of the function e^x, which, yes, grows at a rate proportional to its value, but so does every exponential function. The distinguishing property of e is that it is the unique base of an exponential function that is its own derivative. "Realized that probability distribution lies along a bell curve"—not all probability distributions are bell curves. You really just mean that he gave the first formula for the bell curve. "Stated that the more times something with equal chances occurs, the closer to equal the results become"—this is a very vague description, but I think you're trying to describe the Law of Large Numbers, which says that the average of many independent, identically distributed random variables will almost surely converge to the expected value; in other words, for example, as you flip a fair coin many times, the proportion of heads you get will converge to 1/2. "Created a sequence in which each term is the sum of the previous 2 terms" and "Created a triangle of numbers used to find probabilities"—neither of these men actually created the things that are now named after them; these mathematical discoveries were known in India and China, respectively, centuries before their namesakes were born. "Discovered that 2^n-1 where n is prime is also prime"—that's not a true statement. For example, 11 is prime, but 2^11 - 1 = 2047 = 23 × 89. If it were that easy to discover new prime numbers (just take any prime number n and compute 2^n − 1), there would be no such thing as the largest known prime number. Numbers of the form 2^n − 1 that do happen to be prime are named after this mathematician, but there is no obvious rule to determine whether such a number is prime or not. The primality of the exponent n is a requiremen |
