French Mathematician and Physicist Joseph Fourier died #OTD in 1768.
He is best known for his work in mathematical analysis and the study of heat transfer. One of his most significant contributions is the development of Fourier series, which are used to represent periodic functions as a sum of sine and cosine functions. This work laid the foundation for Fourier analysis.
