Leonhard Euler (April 15, 1707, Basel, Switzerland – September 7, 1783, St. Petersburg) was a Russian scientist of Swiss origin. In 1726, he was invited to the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences, where he worked for more than 30 years. He is the author of many works on philosophy, mathematics, mechanics, astronomy and physics. He is rightfully considered the greatest mathematician in the world in the 18th century. A famous mathematician who made a significant contribution to the development of mathematics, mechanics, physics, astronomy and a number of applied sciences. Euler is the author of more than 800 works on mathematical analysis, differential geometry, number theory, approximate calculations, celestial mechanics, mathematical physics, optics, ballistics, shipbuilding, music theory, etc. He spent almost half his life in Russia, where he made a significant contribution to the development of Russian science. He knew Russian well and published some of his works in Russian. The first Russian academicians-mathematicians (S.K. Kotelnikov) and astronomers (S.Ya. Rumovsky) were Euler’s students.
