It moved to its current location in 1873, and was granted its Royal Charter in 1880 - becoming the Victoria University In 1903, the University's colleges in Leeds and Liverpool became independent universities in their own right (the University of Leeds and the University of Liverpool ), and the university became the Victoria University of Manchester It is now known as the "University of Manchester", and has over 18,000 full-time students (including 2500 international students from more than 120 countries). It is one of the top universities in the country, regularly getting top ratings for research and teaching. On 5 March it was announced that the University is to merge with UMIST in the autumn of , to form the largest conventional university in Britain. Table of contents showTocToggle("show","hide")

Drink to Me (Carolan, sequenced by Barry Taylor) Timeline of Fermat's Last Theorem when who what 1900 BC Babylonians A clay tablet, now in the museum of Columbia University, called Plimpton 322, contains 15 triples of numbers. They show that a square can be written as the sum of two smaller squares, e.g., 5 circa 530 Pythagoras Pythagoras was born in Samos. Later he spent 13 years in Babylon, and probably learned the Babylonian's results, now known as the Pythagorean triples. Pythagoras was also the founder of a secret society that studied among others "perfect" numbers. A perfect number is one that is the sum of its multiplicative factors. For instance, 6 is a perfect number (6 = 1 + 2 + 3). Pythagoreans also recognized that 2 is an irrational number. circa 300 BC Euclid of Alexandria Euclid is best known for his treatise Elements circa 400 BC Eudoxus Eudoxus was born in Cnidos, and became a colleague of Plato. He contributed to the theory of proportions, and invented the "method of exhaustion." This is the same method employed in integral calculus. circa 250 AD Diophantus of Alexandria Diophantus wrote Arithmetica , a collection of 130 problems giving numerical solutions, which included the Diophantine equations , equations which allow only integer solutions (e.g, ax + by = c, x

He was 83. The cause of death was a heart attack, according to an E-mail message sent out this weekend by Dr. Miki Simonovits, a mathematician at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, who was a close friend. Erdos (pronounced AIR-dosh) was attending a mathematics meeting in Warsaw when he died, Simonovits reported. Never, mathematicians say, has there been an individual like Paul Erdos. He was one of the century's greatest mathematicians, who posed and solved thorny problems in number theory and other areas and founded the field of discrete mathematics, which is the foundation of computer science. He was also one of the most prolific mathematicians in history, with more than 1,500 papers to his name. And, his friends say, he was also one of the most unusual. Erdos, "is on the short list for our century," said Dr. Joel H. Spencer, a mathematician at New York University's Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences.
