- ‘No George Boole, not Google would ‘says the search
The company devotes its’ doodle’ the 200th birthday of scientist
today dedicated his “doodle” or logo to the 200th anniversary of
birth of the British mathematician George Boole, scientific
Key to the development of the technology giant.
This was the inventor of the mathematical
Boolean algebra, which is the basis of the arithmetic
modern computer: “It’s fair to say that without George Boole, not
Google would, “the search engine.
Google explains the universe is
complex, but the British mathematician taught us that things
They can be seen as relatively simple: all values
They can be reduced to “yes or no, true or false or 0 or 1″.
For example, a bit (acronym
English -dígito binary-binary digit) is the smallest unit of
information used in computer or digital device and
It is represented by two values, 0 and 1.
Boolean algebra is a structure
It is outlining algebraic logic operations and is
inmiscuida in programming, video games or own
Google searches.
According to the mathematician Manuel de Leon,
Boole invented a way to write algebraic operations and
symbols logical propositions, which has been very
influence on the computer.
In fact, the “doodle” that
today dedicated to this scientist, Google has hung beneath each
the letters of the logo is based on logical statements
Boolean algebra and using the computer for programming,
he said to Efe De Leon.
According to the expert of the Institute
Mathematical Sciences (ICMAT), investigations of Boole
mathematics show that often go ahead of
technological applications: Claude Shannon, a mathematician
invented information theory, was the one who started using the
Boolean algebra 70 years after the death of this.
