(pt) Stanley Skewes (* 1899; † 1988) war ein südafrikanischer Mathematiker mit englischen Wurzeln. Nach ihm ist die Skewes-Zahl benannt, die in der Theorie der Primzahlen eine Rolle spielt und die man früher zu den größten natürlichen Zahlen rechnete, die für die Mathematik eine Bedeutung haben. In Südafrika wurde Stanley Skewes Mathematikprofessor an der Universität Kapstadt (Capetown University). Er beschäftigte sich auch mit Astronomie und war Mitglied der Royal Astronomical Society. 1953 erhielt er die Coronation Medal zur Krönung der britischen Königin. (de) Stanley Skewes (Sudafrica, 1899 – Sudafrica, 1988) è stato un matematico sudafricano con radici inglesi, noto per aver scoperto il numero di Skewes nel 1933. Di famiglia proveniente dalla Cornovaglia, i suoi genitori emigrarono in Sudafrica, nel Transvaal, nel 1894. Dopo aver studiato ingegneria civile presso l'Università di Città del Capo, nel 1923 Skewes si trasferì in Inghilterra per studiare alla Università di Cambridge, usufruendo di una borsa di studio istituita in onore della Regina Vittoria.
