    scholar‚ did more to develop the Cartesian system than did Descartes. The development of the Cartesian coordinate system enabled the development of perspective and projective geometry. It would later play an intrinsic role in the development of calculus by Isaac Newton andGottfried Wilhelm Leibniz.[3] Nicole Oresme‚ a French philosopher of the 14th Century‚ used constructions similar to Cartesian coordinates well before the time of Descartes. Many other coordinate systems have been developed since

    between 31/7 and 310/71. Some of his other theorems concern the centers of gravity of solids and plane figures. Remarkably‚ some of Archimedes’s methods anticipated many discoveries of modern science‚ like integral calculus. People often consider this to be unusual due to the fact integral calculus wasn’t "invented" until two thousand years after Archimedes lived. Among all the contributions Archimedes made‚ he is most recognized for what is now called Archimedes’ Principle. Archimedes’ Principle is his

This‚ of course‚ is nowhere near a good answer‚ so I decided to borrow a technique from utilitarianism called hedonistic calculus‚ which is used to solve ethical dilemmas. This technique involves assigning point values to every component and finding the “score” each possibility will receive. ​I decided to break it down into components of taste‚ texture‚ functionality‚ and

    into the many colours that form the visible spectrum. He also formulated an empirical law of cooling and studied the speed of sound. In mathematics‚ Newton shares the credit with Gottfried Leibniz for the development of differential and integral calculus. He generalized the binomial theorem to non-integer exponents‚ developed Newton ’s method for approximating theroots of a function‚ and contributed to the study of power series. Although an unorthodox Christian‚ Newton was deeply religious and his
