Abraham de Moivre

Food for Thought !

A cool story I thought was interesting.

Abraham de Moivre , a French mathematician, predicted the precise date of his own death.

He noted that he was sleeping 15 minutes longer each day and surmised that he would die on the day he slept for 24 hours. That date, he calculated, would be Nov. 27, 1754.

He was right.
