Newton is most famous in math for his independent development of the Calculus. (Liebnitz developed it about the same time independent of Newton).

Sir Isaac Newton calculus?

Isaac Newton's calculas, created in 1666, is a complicated math problem, or formula. There was a controversy over Newton's calculus when, in 1684, a German scientist maned Gottfried Leibniz published a formula of calculus. Newton raged, and claimed that he had originaly discovered calculus, which he had, and responded by publishing a partial calculus formula in 1693 and a full formula in 1704. Newton still claimed to have invented calculus, but Leibniz would not give up. Finally, Leibniz declared that he had still created calculus, and that his country's scientists would break ties with England's scientists, and eventually get revenge upon England and its scientists for not believing calculus's "rightful" creator. England eventually did get Leibniz'z declared "revenge" in World War 1 & World War 2, though not because Leibniz declared it, and certainly not for the same reasons. The conflict still raged between Newton and Leibniz, but the countries were no longer involved. Newton believed he would win the argument until the day he died.


How did the renaissance change math?

The Renaissance changed math forever because of the revolutionary nature of the discoveries. Leibniz and Newton separately developed calculus, which makes math an infinitely applicable discipline, not just a way of quantifying objects.
