He also studied beta and gamma functions, which he had introduced first in 1729. Legendre called these 'Eulerian integrals of the first and second kind' respectively while they were given the names beta function and gamma function by
Part 2
Daniel Bernoulli held the senior chair in mathematics at the Academy but when he left St Petersburg to return to Basel in 1733 it was Euler who was appointed to this senior chair of mathematics. The financial improvement which came from this appointment allowed Euler to marry which he did on 7 January 1734

After his death in 1783 the St Petersburg Academy continued to publish Euler's unpublished work for nearly 50 more years.
Euler's work in mathematics is so vast that an article of this nature cannot but give a very superficial account of it. He was the most prolific write
