Mathematician of one night (এক রাতের গণিতবিদ) Évariste Galois was a French mathematician and political activist. He lived for only 20 years. But his work laid the foundations for *Galois theory* and *group theory*, two major branches of abstract algebra.
He loved mathematics so much that he could go through a book on mathematics just like a novel. Today I want to share last day of this great mathematician. It was his last night and he knew it. Actually he had to participate in a duel on 30th May, 1832 (the next day). His opposition was expert and so he was sure that it was gonna be his last night.
He could spend the whole night by enjoying or praying. But he did none of them. He sat and wrote down his whole works on mathematics. For his this dedication we have got such major branches in mathematics. And he did all of them only in 20 years of his lifetime.
In those papers, there was a letter also. He wrote several times that "my time is going to have an end". In spite of being a teenager, due to his great works he is called father of a branch of mathematics. I wonder thinking that what he would give the world if he had a long life!
