Abstract
Cyril Offord was one of the most distinguished and certainly the most senior of British mathematical analysts. With J.E. Littlewood, F.R.S., he pioneered the subject of probabilistic analysis by studying the typical behaviour of the zeros of a random polynomial with real coefficients, or an entire function.
