||William Kingdon Clifford FRS (d. 3 March 1879) was an English mathematician and philosopher. Building on the work of Hermann Grassmann, he introduced what is now termed geometric algebra, a special case of the Clifford algebra named in his honour.
File:Emil Artin.jpg|link=Emil Artin (nonfiction)|1898: Mathematician [[Emil Artin (nonfiction)|Emil Artin]] born. He will work on algebraic number theory, contributing to class field theory and a new construction of L-functions. He also contributed to the pure theories of rings, groups and fields.
