Mathematicians
Often, to completely understand the importance of a mathematical theory, it's essential to know about the person who developed it. This category is where all questions about historically significant mathematicians should be asked.

...Yes to an extent, but when we look at the definition of Deists they believe in a form of theological rationalism that believes in God on the basis of reason without reference to revelation . It's debatable of course , but really in context to Leibniz's postulations on "monads" , you'd be more accurate to define him as a believer in "Panpsychism" ... Some would even offer the opinion that Leibniz's beliefs were nothing more than academic , as how now we popularly categorise him , because in reality , when he was alive , he worked with great passion to reconcile the then evolution of the great reformation {as initiated by Luther} with Catholicism .
So in the light of that dedication , perhaps he was just a "do good er Christian" !

Who was the philosopher who developed principles known prior to experience or principles of reason?
Parmenides Principles like those Parmenides assumed are said in contemporary jargon to
be a priori principles, or principles of reason, which just means that they are
known prior to experience
gottrified leibnitz is the one who invent the leibnitz calculator.
Who is the person who instituted the use of the symbol for pi in mathematical notation?
Mathematician Rudolph Swetchefriz
{Added} The symbol is not "for" pi but is pi - one of the letters of the Greek alphabet.
Georg Cantor was a mathematician best known for inventing the "set theory", which has become a fundamental theory in mathematics. He was born in March 1845 In Russia, and died in January 1918 in Germany.
How many books are in Euclid's Elements and what is the title of the book thirteen?
There are 13 books. Book 13 is about regular solids.
In math, group theory is a branch of what is called "abstract algebra" that study special sets of objects called "groups".
Example: you may have studied the following facts about adding numbers.
1.) Every number has a negative of itself. (for any x there is a -x)
2.) Zero added to any number leaves that number the same. (x+0=x)
3.) No matter where you put the parentheses, addition turns out the same. For example, (x+y) +z = x+(y+z)
Therefore, numbers -- combined with the operation of addition -- form a "group" because of these three attributes.
If you learn group theory, you will discover that not just numbers obey these properties. Things like geometric symmetries, permutations, and matrices can all be described as belonging to groups.
