From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
Carl Friedrich Gauss          A German mathematician (1777 - 1855), one of all time       greatest.   Gauss discovered the {method of least squares} and       {Gaussian elimination}.          Gauss was something of a child prodigy; the most commonly told       story relates that when he was 10 his teacher, wanting a rest,       told his class to add up all the numbers from 1 to 100.   Gauss       did it in seconds, having noticed that 1+...+100 = 100+...+1 =       (101+...+101)/2.          He did important work in almost every area of mathematics.       Such eclecticism is probably impossible today, since further       progress in most areas of mathematics requires much hard       background study.          Some idea of the range of his work can be obtained by noting       the many mathematical terms with "Gauss" in their names.   E.g.       {Gaussian elimination} ({linear algebra}); {Gaussian primes}       (number theory); {Gaussian distribution} (statistics); {Gauss}       [unit] (electromagnetism); {Gaussian curvature} (differential       geometry); {Gaussian quadrature} (numerical analysis);       {Gauss-Bonnet formula} (differential geometry); {Gauss's       identity} ({hypergeometric functions}); {Gauss sums} ({number       theory}).          His favourite area of mathematics was {number theory}.   He       conjectured the {Prime Number Theorem}, pioneered the {theory       of quadratic forms}, proved the {quadratic reciprocity       theorem}, and much more.          He was "the first mathematician to use {complex numbers} in a       really confident and scientific way" (Hardy & Wright, chapter       12).          He nearly went into architecture rather than mathematics; what       decided him on mathematics was his proof, at age 18, of the       startling theorem that a regular N-sided polygon can be       constructed with ruler and compasses if and only if N is a       power of 2 times a product of distinct {Fermat primes}.          (1995-04-10)
