French lawyer and mathematician Pierre de Fermat passed away

Pierre de Fermat was a famous French lawyer and mathematician. He was born in the city of Besancon, France in 1601 and passed away on January 12, 1665 at the same location. Fermat was one of the most important mathematicians of the 17th century, particularly famous for his Fermat's theorem. This principle raises a question about the existence of integer solutions, which was not proven by British mathematician Andrew Wiles until 1994. Fermat's other contributions in the field of number theory are also very important, as he was one of the pioneers in calculus and probability theory. Fermat's death caused significant losses to the mathematical community, but his contributions are still widely praised and studied to this day.
