This man introduced dot notation to indicate derivatives, which are used in a method named for him to recursively find roots of a function. He generalized the binomial theorem to all real exponents. Simultaneously with Gottfried (*) Leibniz [LIBE-nits], he invented calculus, whose principles are outlined in his Principia Mathematica. For 10 points, name this English mathematician, whose mathematical insights led him to develop his three laws of motion.
