HISTORY : HISTORY This formula and the triangular arrangement of the binomial coefficients are often attributed to Blaise Pascal‚ who described them in the 17th century‚ but they were known to many mathematicians who preceded him. The 4th century B.C. Greek mathematician Euclid mentioned the special case of the binomial theorem for exponent 2 as did the 3rd century B.C.

1ST GENERATION (MACHINE CODE): The first generation of codes used to program a computer‚ was called machine language or machine code‚ it is the only language a computer really understands‚ a sequence of 0s and 1s that the computer’s controls interprets as instructions‚ electrically. First-generation languages required the writing of long strings of binary numbers to represent such operations as “add‚” “subtract‚” “and compare.” Later improvements allowed octal‚ decimal‚ or hexadecimal representation

Pascal vs Descartes Paper Pascal’s argument is fallible because he reaches the conclusion that we should “wager” God’s existence‚ rather than coming up with “proof” by using deductive reasoning like Descartes provides in his argument. These early 17th century philosophers both provided writings defending the validity of the Christian religion and of God’s existence. After the Protestant Reformation of 1517‚ the Catholic Church’s sanctity was questioned. Different religions sprouted across Europe

Another early relative of the computer was created in the seventeenth century by Blaise Pascal‚ a French mathematician (Long and Long 33C). Pascal was born in Clermont-Ferrand on June 19‚ 1623 and his family settled at Paris in 1629 (Fowlie). In 1642 the young prodigy developed what is now known as "Pascal’s Calculator" (or the "Pascaline") to speed calculations
