Adrien-Marie Legendre, a distinguished French mathematician, made significant contributions to the field, with notable concepts such as the Legendre polynomials and Legendre transformation bearing his name. He advanced the method of least squares, being the first to formally publish on it, despite its earlier discovery by Carl Friedrich Gauss. Legendre’s work is celebrated for its enduring impact on mathematics and theoretical research.
