There are two kinds of mathematicians, or one can say, two cultures of mathematics: (a) problem solving, proving conjectures, etc (b) theories. Alexander Grothendieck belongs to (b). Paul Erdos to (a). You can read Gower's paper on "The two cultures of Mathematics" at: https://www.dpmms.cam.ac.uk/~wtg10/2cultures.pdf |
