Fourier analysis, named after Joseph Fourier (1768 - 1830), is a branch of mathematics of huge importance in modern technology.
A little-known fact is that Fourier once had a short-term position at a Cambridge college, where he was very highly regarded. When he came to leave the college all the other dons gathered and sang “Fourier’s a jolly good fellow!”
