George Boole (1815 - 1864)

Logic came from ancient Greeks such as Aristotle and Euclid. Prior to Boole, logic was literally in Greek; it was expressed in the form of language. Boole was the first to translate logic into algebraic symbols:

• true = 1
• false = 0
• and = product (AxB)
• or = sum(A+B)
