Cafodd Alan Turing ei eni yn Llundain. Mathemategydd, gwyddonydd cyfrifiadur ac athronydd oedd e. Mae e'n cael ei adnabod fel tad cyfrifiadureg a deallusrwydd artiffisial, ac yn enwog am y Peiriant Turing a'r Prawf Turing

Alan Turing was born in London. He was a mathematician, computer scientist and philosopher. He is well known as the father of computer science and artificial intelligence and is famous for the Turing Machine and Turing Test

Cafodd John Tukey ei eni yn New Bedford, Massachusetts, UDA. Mae Tukey yn adnabyddus am ddatblygu'r algorithm Trawsnewid Fourier Cyflym (FFT), sy'n cael ei ddefnyddio mewn cyfrifiadureg, peirianneg a mathemateg. Hefyd, dyfeisiodd e'r plot bocs!

John Tukey was born in New Bedford, Massachusetts, USA. Tukey is most famous for developing the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm, which is used in computing, engineering and mathematics. He also invented the box plot!

AR Y DYDDIAD HWN YM 1856... / ON THIS DATE IN 1856...

Cafodd Andrey Markov ei eni yn Ryazan, Rwsia. Mae Markov yn fwyaf enwog am ei waith mewn prosesu stocastig, yn enwedig prosesu Markov a chadwynau Markov, sy'n cael ei defnyddio mewn mathemateg, ffiseg, cemeg, arianneg a mwy!

Andrey Markov was born in Ryazan, Russia. Markov is most famous for his work on stochastic processes, especially Markov processes and Markov chains, which are used in mathematics, physics, chemistry, finance and beyond!

AR Y DYDDIAD HWN YM 1928... / ON THIS DATE IN 1928...

Cafodd John Forbes Nash Jr. ei eni yng Ngorllewin Virginia. Gweithiodd e ar ddamcaniaeth gemau, geometreg a hafaliad differol. Enillodd e Wobr Nobel mewn Economeg gyda Selten a Harsani ym 1994 am ei waith mewn damcaniaeth gemau

John Forbes Nash Jr. was born in West Virginia, USA. He worked mainly on game theory, geometry and partial differential equations. He won the Nobel Prize in Economics with Selten and Harsani in 1994 for his work in game theory

(09/06) AR Y DYDDIAD HWN YM 1751... / ON THIS DATE IN 1751...

Bu farw John Machin, mathemategydd o Loegr, yn Llundain. Creodd e fformiwla i gyfrifo π a'i defnyddio i ffeindio 100 lle-degol cyntaf π. Defnyddiwyd y fformiwla am ganrifoedd i gyfrifo π, hyd yn oed yn oes y cyfrifiadur!

John Machin, an English mathematician, died in London. He created a formula to calculate π and used it to find the first 100 decimal places of π. The formula has been used for centuries to calculate π, even in the computer age!

Cafodd Giovanni Cassini ei eni. Mae e'n adnabyddus am ei ddarganfyddiad o sawl lleuad Sadwrn a'r gofod rhwng modrwyau Sadwrn, ond roedd e hefyd yn fathemategydd. Mae ei enw i'w weld yn yr Unfathiant a Chyfreithiau Cassini

Giovanni Cassini was born. Cassini is best known for his discovery of several moons of Saturn and for the division between Saturn's rings, but he was also a keen mathematician. His name appears in Cassini's Identity and Laws

Cafodd Elena Cornaro Piscopia, a.k.a. Helen Cornaro, ei geni yn Fenis. Astudiodd Cornaro fathemateg, athroniaeth, diwinyddiaeth, ffiseg, seryddiaeth ac ieithoedd. Roedd hi'n un o'r merched cyntaf i ennill gradd a'r cyntaf erioed i dderbyn PhD.

Elena Cornaro Piscopia, a.k.a. Helen Cornaro, was born in Venice. Cornaro studied maths, philosophy, theology, physics, astronomy and languages. She was one of the first women to obtain an academic degree and the first woman ever to receive a PhD.
