John von Neumann was born Janos Lajos Margittai Neumann on

December 28, 1903, in Budapest, Hungary. He was raised in a

non-practicing Jewish home and had an exceptional memory. At
an early age he was able to divide eight digit numbers in his head.
He had also learned calculus when he was only eight years old.

After graduation from high school, Von Neumann received his

Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Budapest. He also
simultaneously studied chemistry in Switzerland. Between the
years of 1926 and 1930 he was a private lecturer in Berlin
Germany. In 1930, Princeton University invited him to lecture on
mathematical physics. During his stay at Princeton, the founders
of the Institute of Advanced Study asked him to accept a chair in
mathematics. He accepted and became one of the original
members of the institute and remained there for the rest of his life.
John von Neumann was mostly known for his work on the atomic
bomb aka the Manhattan project. In 1943 he began working on
the atomic bomb alongside Einstein and Oppenheimer. After
completing the task of building the bomb he became interested in
using machines for the calculation of numbers. His fascination
with computers grew and he immensely contributed to the
creation of modern computers. John von Neumann also is famous
for three theorems, the set theory, the game theory and the
automata theory.
Set theory states that a statement in the language of ZFC is
provable in NBG if and only if it is provable in ZFC.
Game theory states that an individual’s success in making
choices depends on the choices of others.
Automata Theory is Body of physical and logical principles
underlying the operation of any electromechanical device (an
automaton) that converts information input in one form into
another, or into some action, according to an algorithm.
