<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">John Wallis Wallis' work, Arithmetica Infinitum, published in 1655, set the stage for the invention and development of differential calculus: this work went on to be one of Isaac Newton's major influences. Wallis (1616-1703) was the first mathematician to apply mathematics to the operation of the tides, and also invented the symbol used to denote infinity.
