    Extractions: Died: 27 Nov 1754 in London, England After spending five years at a Protestant academy at Sedan, Abraham de Moivre studied logic at Saumur from 1682 until 1684. He then went to Paris, studying at the Collège de Harcourt and taking private lessons in mathematics from 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.

26. Wiskundigen - De Moivre
    Abraham De Moivre (1667 1754) was een van oorsprong Frans wiskundige, Abraham De Moivre werd geboren op 26 mei 1667 in Vitry-le-François, in Champagne  
    http://www.wiskundeweb.nl/Wiskundegeschiedenis/Wiskundigen/DeMoivre.html
    
    Extractions: De Moivre was een goede vriend van Newton en van de astronoom Edmund Halley. Hij hield zich vooral bezig met de waarschijnlijkheidsrekening, de theorie der complexe getallen (met de beroemde stelling van De Moivre) en de theorie der oneindige rijen. Hij leidde de formule voor de normale verdeling af uit de binomiale kansverdeling. Ook bedacht hij de beroemde stelling van De Moivre voor complexe getallen. Links naar anderstalige sites: In 1710 werd De Moivre aangesteld als lid van de commissie die de Royal Society in het leven riep om uit te maken wie nu het eerst de differentiaal- en intrgraalrekening had ontdekt: Newton of Leibniz. Uit deze aanstelling bleek duidelijk welk antwoord de Royal Society wilde horen: De Moivre was immers een vriend van Newton! In 1718 publiceerde De Moivre 'The Doctrine of Chance', een boek over kansrekening waarin de eerste definitie van statistische onafhankelijkheid verschijnt, naast de aanpak van allerlei problemen op het gebied van dobbelen en andere kansspelen. Hij bestudeerde ook sterftetabellen en werkte aan de theorie van de wiskunde rond levensverzekeringen.

    Extractions: Version for printing Abraham de Moivre The Edict of Nantes had guaranteed freedom of worship in France since 1598 but, although it made any extension of Protestant worship in France legally impossible, it was much resented by the Roman Catholic clergy and by the local French parliaments. Despite the Edict, the Protestant Academy at Sedan was suppressed in 1682 and de Moivre, forced to move, then studied logic at Saumur until 1684. Although mathematics was not a part of the course that he was studying, de Moivre read mathematics texts in his own time. In particular he read Huygens ' treatise on games of chance De ratiociniis in ludo aleae. Ozanam Religious persecution of Protestants became very serious after Louis XIV revoked the Edict of Nantes in 1685, leading to the expulsion of the Huguenots. At this time de Moivre was imprisoned for his religious beliefs in the priory of St Martin. It is unclear how long he was kept there, since Roman Catholic biographers indicate that soon after this he emigrated to England while his Protestant biographers say that he was imprisoned until 27 April 1688 after which he travelled to England. After arriving in London he became a private tutor of mathematics, visiting the pupils whom he taught and also teaching in the coffee houses of London.

    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.
