Chapter 1734: Calculus

At this moment, Newton was immersed in a mathematical calculation.

In front of him was drawn a cube and an ellipsoid.

The ellipsoid covered the top of this cube, forming a shadow; now, calculate the area of this shadow.

Newton had been calculating for a long time, but still had not managed to calculate this shadow area.

At the very beginning, he used the "Method of Exhaustion" that his predecessors used to calculate shadows, but this method was truly too time-consuming.

Newton was deducing a faster, simpler method.

Finally, after experiencing a very long period of reasoning, he finally deduced this Method.

"Hahaha, I finally know how to verify the shadow area of this object!"

After Mo Cheng heard Newton's manic laughter, he walked over; he looked at Newton, whose expression was very poor, his eyes bloodshot, holding a thick stack of theoretical papers in his hands.

The whole person was in a state of mania.

But Mo Cheng's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Brother Newton, what knowledge have you deduced again?"

Newton looked at Mo Cheng, looking at him excitedly, and said with excitement, "I know the simplest, fastest method to calculate this elliptical shadow within a square."

Hearing this, Mo Cheng revealed an excited expression.

Although he was proficient in Physics, Mathematics was also a subject he was very skilled in yet needed.

The success of this research meant that Newton's mathematical knowledge had been raised to a better level.

"Come and take a look at this calculation method." Newton handed a stack of papers to Mo Cheng.

It was filled with dense calculation processes, and among these calculation processes, Mo Cheng was actually not sleepy while looking at them, and even found them quite interesting.

"Hmm, not bad. With such research results, Brother Newton, you can definitely become a very influential mathematician in history."

"Your achievements will be limitless."

Newton laughed embarrassedly upon hearing this, and he looked at Mo Cheng and said, "Right now this is just a method; in two days, after I organize it, I will publish this knowledge."

"What do you think we should call this mathematical concept?"

After Mo Cheng thought for a moment, he said, "Such a mathematical concept is used for the analysis of the infinitely small, the application of differentiation and integration; I think we should call it Calculus."

Hearing this name, Newton pondered for a while, then said, "Let's call it that name."

Another ten days passed.

After Newton organized this knowledge of Calculus, he still was not in a hurry to publish it; he even forgot about the matter of publishing Calculus.

This day, Newton came to the Bulidian Huangjia Xueyuan to take up his post.

He was already the president of this academy; not liking any work, he was only relatively attentive to this one job.

At the very least, he achieved the super-high frequency of teaching one class a month.

After Newton arrived at the Bulidian Huangjia Xueyuan, he saw that many of the teachers and students in the academy were looking at the same newspaper.

Reading the newspaper was nothing strange; the most important thing was the content inside these newspapers, which attracted Newton's attention.

After Newton arrived at his office, he watched his colleagues looking at the newspaper thoughtfully; he picked up a newspaper that someone else had read, looked at the content on it, and was suddenly stunned, his expression changing in shock.

The headline news on these academic newspapers.

"Famous Prussian mathematician Leibniz has had a major breakthrough in research..."

It was as if he had been struck by lightning.

Because the content recorded in the newspaper was not the slightest bit different from the Calculus concept he had researched.

"Absurd, he must have stolen my research results!"

"It must be like this, absolutely correct!"

Newton angrily tore the newspaper in his hands into shreds!

Everyone, upon seeing

Newton's angry actions, was slightly stunned; they could not understand why Newton would be so furious.

"President Newton, this Prussian's research into such a mathematical concept is a fortunate event for us; why are you so angry?"

Newton stared at the teacher from the Bulidian Huangjia Xueyuan who had spoken, and roared, "This guy clearly plagiarized my mathematical concept."

Everyone frowned.

They knew Newton was stubborn, but he never lost his temper like this over such matters, unless he was extremely angered.

That teacher said, "This report was published by Leibniz in the European press three days ago. President Newton, you say he plagiarized your idea; how do you explain this?"

Newton gave a cold laugh and said indifferently, "I had already researched this mathematical concept ten days ago. If you don't believe it, I still have the original manuscript there."

"And there are witnesses who can prove for me that I am not lying."

"Do you believe me or not?"

That teacher looked at Newton's firm gaze, and they began to doubt the matters recorded in the newspaper in their hands.

Newton would not lie about this matter.

The teacher looked at Newton and said, "Since President Newton is so insistent, I do have a suggestion: I suggest that President Newton go and reason with Leibniz for the sake of the orthodoxy of this mathematical concept."

Newton gave a muffled snort: "Reasoning is reasoning; if he did not plagiarize my manuscript but deduced this theory himself, then this matter will be let go."

"But if not, he must pay the price for it."

That teacher said, "I will fully support your actions, President Newton."

Newton asked, "Where is this person called Leibniz?"

The teacher thought for a moment and said, "It is currently unknown; he might be in some other place. After all, the European continent is not peaceful right now; there is fighting everywhere, especially in Prussia."

Hearing this, Newton's brow furrowed immediately; regarding such a situation, he also had no Method.

That teacher said again, "However, he published the report through the European Armis Agency three days ago, so perhaps the Armis Agency might have a way to contact him."

"President Newton, I suggest you also go to the Armis Agency to publish your own research results and declare war on him; if he is still alive, he might be able to see the news you publish."

"The two of you might just be able to meet."

Upon hearing this idea, Newton's eyes immediately lit up; for him, this could be said to be a rather good idea.

Thinking of this, Newton immediately canceled the class he had originally planned to teach, and instead of going to it, he turned and headed to the Armis Agency; he wanted to publish the research results he had not yet released.

As a scholar, Newton absolutely could not tolerate his research results being plagiarized by others, but if the other party had researched it themselves, then everything would be a different matter!
