Charles Méray

French mathematician (1835-1911) · France · On the map · Academics · Died at 75

Hugues Charles Robert Méray was a French mathematician. He is noted as the first to publish an arithmetical theory of irrational numbers. His work did not have much of a role in the history of mathematics because France, at that time, was less interested in such matters than Germany.

Charles Méray is read about 3 times a day, in 8 languages.

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.
