近代数学家华蘅芳简介(A brief introduction to modern mathematician Hua Hengfang)
Hua Hengfang is an outstanding mathematician and a scientific and technical translator in modern China
In the field of research and translation, western modern mathematics has made remarkable achievements.
Hua Hengfang, word Ruoting. Born in Jiangsu, Wuxi in 1833. He died of illness in 1902,
He died at the age of 70.
Hua Hengfang has been interested in natural science since childhood and has a particular interest in mathematics.
Since 14 years old when he has to seriously study in Song Chinese mathematics as the orthodox count
Incomplete, basically mastered the content. Between 1848 and 1852, he continued to study assiduously
Read China classical mathematical works, such as Zhou Jing, nine chapters of arithmetic Mathematics
Work。 At the same time, he worked hard to study the latest translations of western mathematics works at that time
A book, often neglected to study ceaselessly, and with Chinas modern chemist Xu Shouhu
Day, must learn from the solution of difficult problems, and then has melt away.
Therefore, Hua Hengfang laid a solid foundation in mathematics when he was young. In 1859, Hua Heng
In the first book of mathematical Fang on parabolic.
In 1861, Hua Hengfang and Xu Shouxian entered the ordnance Institute in Anqing and accepted the trial manufacture of guns and shells
The task of medicine. In their trial production, they studied the western modern science seriously

The force is first made into a small steam engine. In 1864, ordnance moved to Nanjing, where he and Xu
Shou cooperation continued to trial production, and finally trial production of heavy 25 tons, speed about 28 miles of fire steamer
