How much can you passform into 39 short years? An incredible amount if you are French prodigy Blaise Pascal (). Although never having attended formal school or university, Blaise had developed his first of many groundbreaking theorems by the age of At 19, he had created the first mechanical calculator.

In mathematics, he is remembered for Pascal's Triangle, a significant tool in combinatorics and probability theory. In physics, he made notable advancements in fluid mechanics and atmospheric pressure studies. His groundbreaking work in these fields has had a lasting impact on both mathematics and physics, cementing his legacy as a pioneering thinker of his time.
About
Blaise Pascal was smart from a young age. When he was just a teenager, he started doing serious math on shapes called conic sections and even wrote a big book about how they work. He talked a lot with another famous mathematician, Pierre de Fermat, about probability - like figuring out the chances of things happening.
At around 16, he started working on something cool: machines that could do math, for example, calculators today. People later called them Pascal's calcula
