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.

What Greek mathematician is famous for his attempts at the measurement of the circle?

What best describes the work of Descartes?
He was a philosopher and his work reflects the questions about life he asked. "I am therefore I exist."
You can purchase a magnet on a telescoping wand that mechanics use to grab tools that have been lost. This MAYbe of some help trying to locate the run-away chain.Usually the p-trap under a tub is located directly below the overflow plate. Remove the two screws and try to fish a magnet down the pipe. The pipe and overflow plate are likely to be covered with soap scum and other stuff but it won't hurt you if you wash your hands afterward.If you can't get the chain using that method, you may have to resort to pulling the p-trap. Most tubs have an access door on the wall behind the overflow. It is often in another room. Before removing the p-trap, make sure that you have the supplies that you think you will need, including a new gasket, perhaps some "pipe dope" and you may even need to go so far as to get a new p-trap and fittings. A note of caution here,if the p-trap hasn't been removed for quite a while it would definitely be a good idea to replace the gasket when you take it apart. Also, sometimes p-traps have rusted over time and putting a wrench to the p-trap can cause them to completely crumble.Depending on what happens when you take the p-trap apart, you may be able to clean out the trap, find your wandering chain and put it all together without making an additonal trip to the local home improvement store... but probably not. Like anything else, there can be many potential "opportunities" to learn more about plumbing when you take on a project like this.
He worked in ancient Greece mostly in the city of Athens.
What is the contribution of andrew wiles to mathematics?
He proved Fermat's Last Theorem. Actually he proved the Taniyama-Shimura-Weil conjecture and this proved the theorem.
Did Howrse get rid of Archimedes?
Archimedes is a limited edition Special Horse on Howrse.
Here is a bit of info on how he was obtained...
Archimedes is the horse of knowledge; he appeared in the game to reward the best contributors in the quiz. His intelligence level changes according to the answers that the players give to the questions he asks. Every day, Archimedesgives one aging point to all the players who correctly answer his questions.
Unfortunately, this horse can no longer be claimed as Howrse Quiz is no longer being run by Owlient. You may be able to buy him from the sales if you're lucky.
What are Aristotle and Linneaus known for in relation to classification?
Aristotle was known as the great classifier, since he organized the world in categories of all sorts. To be more specific, he categorized all things perceivable to man into 10 categories: substance, quantity, qualification, relation, place, time, posture, state, action, and affection. All these are objects or things in the world that can be related to each other by virtue of some of the categories.
Carl Linneaus invented the binomial nomenclature, which is the system of naming all living things using two latin words, e.g. homo sapiens. The first word denotes the species, the second word the subspecies within that species.
So, they both created one system that was to encompass the entire world, whereas Aristotle's categories are slightly more abstract, Linneaus' are very concrete.
The definition is: The benefit of the doubt is to be given to the document itself, not assigned by the critics to himself.

What are the rules Pythagoras had gave his members?
He said you must watch Mary Pickford's Films. Including Sparrow (1926)
Is the mobius strip a paradox?
If, by paradox, you mean a logical self-contradiction, the answer is NO, it is not a paradox. Its physical existence proves that it cannot be self-contradictory.
However, if you mean something that is contary to received opinion but may yet be true, the answer is YES.
How did Blaise Pascal's inventions impact the world?
Blaise Pascal's greatest invention was the Pascaline invented in 1742 which was a basic calculator that could add, subtract, multiply, and divide. Before this was made there were 50 prototypes. Blaise made 20 others during the 1740's .The Pascaline inspired other calculators to be made but the most important was the microprocessor made in the 20th century. The microprocessor is in every modern computer today.

How do you solve Alan turing cryptography chapter five?
A hint will be given on the competition website at 4pm on Monday 12th March. In the meantime, please do not ask for hints or answers as this is against the rules of the competition (as you well know).
Mathematicians are people whose primary area of study and research is the field of mathematics.
Another answerTo expand on the answer above:
Very broadly, mathematics can be divided into pure mathematics, applied mathematics and mathematical statistics, though the boundaries are very blurry. Also, computer science and theoretical physics blend in to mathematics.
Pure mathematics: Advancing mathematics for its own sake.
Applied mathematics: Applying mathematics to other areas, including physics, chemistry, biology, ecology, engineering, computing, and financial mathematics.
Mathematical statistics: Contains the theory of probability and statistics, and applications to any area where there is probability or uncertainty, from physics to medicine and social science.
These areas feed off one another. Attempts to solve practical problems can lead to new mathematical tools in pure mathematics, and areas that are originally pursued for their own sake turn out to have applications.
A lot of mathematicians work in colleges and universities, where they spend time teaching, but also working on creating new mathematics or applying mathematics to new problems.
Other mathematicians are employed by governments, industry and business, where the focus is mainly on using mathematics to solve practical problems (the NSA, for example, is responsible for all cryptological defense in the United States, and hires some of the best mathematicians in the nation for this purpose, given that most cryptological problems are highly complex).
