Measuring the World (German: Die Vermessung der Welt) is a 2012 German-Austrian 3D film directed by Detlev Buck, based on the eponymous novel by Daniel Kehlmann.[2][3]
The movie, based on the partly authentic, partly fictional book, tells the life story of mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauß and the biologist Alexander von Humboldt. While Humboldt travels the world to research flora and fauna, Gauß focuses on advancing in the field of mathematics.
