SUMMARY. — The method of least squares is a priori merely a convenient technique for choosing the values of certain unknown variables in an optimal way relative to a certain number of observations. So it would appear in the work of Legendre. Gauss improved considerably on the theory and practice of the method : indeed, he provided two successive theoretical justifications of it, in 1809 and 1821, based on Probabilities, thus specifying the conditions of its use. Moreover, his remarkable application of the method in the fields of Astronomy and Geodesy gave rise to new algebraic techniques. Thus, with this method of least squares, Gauss led us to a genuine meeting point of pure and applied sciences.RÉSUMÉ. — La méthode des moindres carrés n'e...
