Eudoxus of Cnidus (c. 408 – c. 355 BC) was an ancient Greek philosopher and mathematician, known primarily for his contributions to mathematics and astronomy. He was a student of Plato and made significant advancements in the study of geometry and the understanding of planetary motion. One of his notable contributions to mathematics is the method of exhaustion, a precursor to the integral calculus, which is used to find the area of shapes and volumes of solids.
