so is the consensus that Gauss is the GOAT mathematician Anonymous Thu Jan 19 23:31:40 2017 No.8615838 [Reply] [Original]

pretty much accepted among the mathematical community?

That's exactly what's good about him

As if Gauss or Euler stayed in one field. They all did physics and computation too.
