1 gen 1669 anni - invention of the binary code

Descrizione:

The binary number system has many fathers. The first to propose its use was Juan Caramuel with the publication of the volume Mathesis biceps. Vetus, et noua, published in Campagna in 1669. Traces of it can also be found in the works of Nepero. Later, the German mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz first studied its arithmetic. This is the reason why this numbering system is considered among his greatest inventions. But it didn't have an immediate sequel. Binary arithmetic was soon forgotten and only rediscovered in 1847 thanks to the English mathematician George Boole who will open the horizon to the great schools of mathematical logic of the twentieth century and above all to the birth of the electronic calculator.
