LEIBNIZ
Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646–1716) was a German philosopher, mathematician, and polymath who independently developed calculus alongside Isaac Newton and helped lay the foundations of modern logic and computing. He proposed that reality is composed of fundamental entities called “monads” and famously argued that our universe is “the best of all possible worlds.” Leibniz also invented the binary number system, a conceptual breakthrough that later became fundamental to digital computing.
