“The greatest advantage  in gambling lies  in not playing at all.”

Scene 2

Cardano was born on the 24th of September, 1501 in Pavia, Lombardy, and died on September 21, 1576 because of tuberculosis. He is the illegitimate child of Fazio Cardano , a mathematically gifted jurist, lawyer, and close personal friend of Leonardo da Vinci. Cardano claimed that his mother had attempted to abort him. Shortly before his birth, his mother had to move from Milan to Pavia to escape the Plague; her three other children died from the disease..

Shortly before his birth, his mother had to move from Milan to Pavia to escape the Plague; her three other children died from the disease.

In 1520, Cardano entered the University of Pavia against the wish of his father, who wanted his son to undertake studies of law, but Girolamo felt more attracted to philosophy and science. During the Italian War of 1521–1526, however, the authorities in Pavia were forced to close the university in 1524. Cardano resumed his studies at the University of Padua, where he graduated with a doctorate in medicine in 1525..

Scene 7

Today, he is well known for his achievements in algebra. In his 1545 book Ars Magna, he made the first systematic use of negative numbers in Europe, published with attribution the solutions of other mathematicians for the cubic and quartic equations, and acknowledged the existence of imaginary numbers.

He also made important contributions to probability, hydrodynamics, mechanics and geology. His book  Liber de Ludo  Aleae    was published in 1663 but the book on games of chance was probably completed by 1563. It is the first study of things such as dice rolling, based on the premise that there are fundamental scientific principles governing the likelihood of achieving the elusive 'double six', outside of mere luck or chance.
