|File:Giuseppe Piazzi.jpg|link=Giuseppe Piazzi (nonfiction)|1766: Priest, mathematician, and astronomer [[Giuseppe Piazzi (nonfiction)|Giuseppe Piazzi]] uses [[Gnomon algorithm]] techniques to detect and counteract [[crimes against mathematical constants]].
File:Hans Christian Ørsted.jpg|link=Hans Christian Ørsted (nonfiction)|1851: Physicist and chemist [[Hans Christian Ørsted (nonfiction)|Hans Christian Ørsted]] dies. He discovered that electric currents create magnetic fields, which was the first connection found between electricity and magnetism.
||Constantin Marie Le Paige (9 March 1852 – 26 January 1929) was a Belgian mathematician. He worked on the theory of algebraic form, especially algebraic curves and surface and more particularly for his work on the construction of cubic surfaces.
