 | | Ferdinand Gotthold Max Eisenstein (April 16, 1823 - October 11, 1852) was a German (A person of German nationality) mathematician (A person skilled in mathematics). |
 | | He was born and died in Berlin (Capital of Germany located in eastern Germany), Germany (A republic in central Europe; split into East German and West Germany after World War II and reunited in 1990). |
 | | Gauss's choice of Eisenstein, who specialized in analysis (The abstract separation of a whole into its constituent parts in order to study the parts and their relations), seemed puzzling to many, but Gauss may have thought that had Eisenstein lived longer, he would have fulfilled his true potential. |
