Most people are familiar with the work of the great mathematicians of ancient Greece and Rome, such as Archimedes, Euclid, Pytha

goras, and Plato. However, a great deal of important work in arithmetic, geometry, algebra, number theory, and logic was carried out by scholars working in Egypt, Persia, India, and China. For example, the concept of zero was first developed in India, and positional numbering systems (like our own decimal system) were developed and used in China, India, and the Middle East long before they made their way to Europe.
Required:
Read about the work of some mathematician (such as Al-Khowarizmi) from these or other places, and write a paper describing his or her contributions to mathematics, logic, and (ultimately) computer science.

How did the invention of the transistor in the 1950 impact electronic communications
leonid [27]

Answer:

Without the transistor, you wouldn't for starters be able to have computers, let alone the internet. Transistors are found on microchips and without them there would be no modern electronics. Cell phones, cars, tvs, cameras, house hold appliances, anything with microchips in it has transistors, and without them they couldn't work. How important it is for electronic communication is seen in the idea that there wouldn't be cell phones or computers without them.
