ilization mostly survived on syllogisms and stoic logic for nearly two thousand years before George Boole devised his theory of binary logic in 1847. Boole developed an elegant mathematical system for representing logical statements that allowed simple arithmetical operations to answer logical questions.
ferent: innovation was not necessarily considered a good thing. At the turn of the 20" century, scientists were on a mission to tidy things up. Lord Kelvin announced in 1890 that mankind had discovered everything there was to know and the role of future scientists was simply to catalogue and observe the

scheme for doing yes-no, either-or computation onto current switching devices such that circuit closed was “true” and circuit open was “false.” Using Boole’s laws such as “Not(A and B)” always equals “(Not A) or (Not B)” led to schemes for circuit routing through electronic gates which also serve for inf

Ideas about entropy grew out of William Thomson's (a.k.a Lord Kelvin) thermodynamic laws about energy conservation and its allowable transformations. Later Clausius decomposed the energy into that which was available f
