Christian Zeller

Theory of Computation

Julius Christian Johannes Zeller was a German mathematician, born on 24 June 1822 in Mühlhausen am Neckar and died on 31 May 1899 in Cannstatt. He was trained in mathematics, geography and theology, and in 1874 he became Director of the Seminary in Markgröningen and of a girls' orphanage. In 1882 he became a member of the Société Mathématique de France, and on 16 March 1883 he delivered a short account of his congruence relation, now known as Zeller's congruence, which was published in that society's journal. He was later awarded the Order of Friedrich, First Class, and the Ritterkreuz of Württemberg, and he retired in 1898.
