Problem: What would be good to write back to: Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz made a huge contribution to the field of mathematics and is the foundation for computer science. He is credited with the creation of the binary number system as he described such a system in a letter Joachim Bouvet in 1703. This binary system has gone on to be the very foundation of computing as all instructions, calculations, etc., are carried out by computers are done so by a series of 1s and 0s. He also worked with Isaac Newton to develop calculus, which he further developed into Logical Calculus. How does this relate to the Saint Leo core value of excellence? The core value wants us to develop the character, learn the skills and assimilate the knowledge essential to become morally responsible leaders. To be able to fathom such a new way of thinking he had to have developed his skills in mathematics. To become a leader, one has to be capable of thinking out of the box in ways that progress themselves and others. As you can see, the very fact that we are able to take classes online, miles, even countries apart speaks.
