The Origin of Graphs | History of Mathematics with Luc de Brabandère

How did we come to use graphs, charts and curves to see the patterns in things?
It was thanks to the work of the French mathematician and philosopher, René Descartes, in the 17th Century.

By merging geometry and algebra, Descartes developed the Cartesian Coordinates, which allow us to plot numbers in a visual way to determine trends and tendencies.

Follow Luc de Branbandère on his journey through The History of Maths, where he explores everything from Egyptians measuring with the Sun to modern algorithms for self-driving cars.
