Biography of abraham de moivre (16671754) abraham de moivre. Born 26 May 1667 in Vitry (near Paris), France years at a Protestant academy at Sedan, abraham de moivre studied logic at Saumur
http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/De_Moivre.html

Extractions: After spending five years at a Protestant academy at Sedan, Abraham de Moivre Ozanam A French Protestant, de Moivre emigrated to England in 1685 following the revocation of the Edict of Nantes and the expulsion of the Huguenots. He became a private tutor of mathematics and hoped for a chair of mathematics, but this was not to be since foreigners were at a disadvantage. In 1697 he was elected a fellow of the Royal Society In 1710 de Moivre was appointed to the Commission set up by the Royal Society to review the rival claims of Newton and Leibniz to be the discovers of the calculus. His appointment to this Commission was due to his friendship with Newton. The Royal Society knew the answer it wanted! De Moivre pioneered the development of analytic geometry and the theory of probability . He published The Doctrine of Chance in 1718. The definition of statistical independence appears in this book together with many problems with dice and other games. He also investigated mortality statistics and the foundation of the theory of annuities.

Extractions: de Moivre, Abraham The French-born mathematician Abraham de Moivre, b. May 26, 1667, d. Nov. 27, 1754, was a pioneer in PROBABILITY theory and TRIGONOMETRY. He discovered the approximation of the BINOMIAL DISTRIBUTION known as the NORMAL DISTRIBUTION. He also investigated mortality statistics and the foundation of the theory of annuities and devised DE MOIVRE'S THEOREM, a trigonometric formula for obtaining powers and roots of complex numbers. A French Protestant, de Moivre emigrated (1685) to England following the revocation of the Edict of Nantes. In 1697 he was elected a fellow of the Royal Society. His book The Doctrine of Chances (1718) contained major advances in probability theory. Despite his scientific eminence, he subsisted mainly by tutoring mathematics and died in poverty.

Extractions: Abraham de Moivre May 26 November 27 ), was a French mathematician famous for de Moivre's formula , which links complex numbers and trigonometry , and for his work on the normal distribution and probability theory . He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1697, and was a friend of Isaac Newton and Edmund Halley De Moivre was born in Vitry-le-François, Champagne . The social status of his family is unclear, but De Moivre's father, a surgeon, was able to send him to the Protestant academy at Sedan (1678-82). De Moivre studied logic at Saumur (1682-84), attended the Collège de Harcourt in Paris (1684), and studied privately with Ozanam (1684-85). It does not appear that De Moivre received a college degree. De Moivre was a Calvinist , and he left France after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes (1685), and spent the remainder of his life in England. Throughout his life he remained poor. It is reported that he was a regular customer of Slaughter's Coffee House, St. Martin's Lane at Cranbourn Street, where he earned a little money from playing chess . He died in London and was buried at St Martin's-in-the-Fields , although his body was later moved.

http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/Biographies/MainBiographies/M/Moivre/1.html

Extractions: His The Doctrine of Chances was published first in Latin and then in expanded English versions 1718, 1738, and 1758. It was one of the first books on probability, and made an approximation to the normal or Gaussian distribution, which was incorporated into statistical studies for the next 200 years. De Moivre was the first to derive an exact formulation of how 'chances' and stable frequency are related. Analysing mortality statistics, De Moivre laid the mathematical foundations of the theory of annuities, for which he devised formulae based on a postulated law of mortality and constant rates of interest on money. First published 1725, his work became standard in textbooks of all subsequent commercial applications.

Moivre besuchte von 1678 bis 1681 die protestantische Schule in Sedan , studierte 1682-1684 in Saumur Logik und Mathematik und nahm 1684 in Paris Privatunterricht bei Jaques Ozanam. Nach dem Revokationsedikt von hielt man ihn in Paris fest, um ihn zur Konversion zu bewegen. Am 27. April 1688 wurde er freigelassen und floh nach England. Er schlug sich als Privatlehrer durch und ver¶ffentlichte von 1695 an Arbeiten vor allem im Zusammenhang mit den neuen Methoden der Infinitesimalrechnung . 1967 wurde er zum Mitglied der Royal Society ernannt. Seine Versuche, eine Professur auf dem Festland zu erhalten, scheiterten.
