Talk:Joseph Louis Lagrange

I don't like this in the first paragraph. It makes it look as if the mean value theorem was his most important work. Can it pleased be moved lower down in the article ? Theresa knott 14:33 2 Jul 2003 (UTC)

This is a work in progress. Everything but the first paragraph is cut and pasted. If you know of something LaGrange did, then add it in. Also, some argue that the MTV is the most important theorem in calculus. Pizza Puzzle

Can you tell me why you keep in spelling his name LaGrange, rather than Lagrange? See this search http://www.google.com/search?q=lagrange%20site%3A.fr for how the French spell it (and they should know) and this one http://www.google.com/search?q=mathematician+lagrange for the mathematician. Notice how all of the few mis-spellings are on U.S. sites, but the consensus on both sides of the Atlantic by a large margin is "Lagrange". -- The Anome
