I seriously doubt if the 01 tables were invented by philosophers. What interest they are of for a philosopher? It is a work of logic; mathematical logic, to be more precise.
All you can do as a philosopher is argue about it.
Yup, they were indeed. Its called "truth-tables" and the basic operations of the machine code in a computer science language such as "and, or, nand, nor, xor, xnor" etc are made by philosophers. If you have ever taken computer science/programming at university or know anyone who has, they usually require you to take a philosophy course as it teaches logic, sentential logic (e.g. in proper wording in programming, syntax consistency etc).
Lol you've come upon a very heated debate among philosophers, they are the ones who invented the "scientific method" ... such as aristotle; 1. hypothesis, 2. empirical results/tests, 3. conclusion (affirmation or rejection of hypothesis). The problem is that philosophers see science as just
one way of looking at the universe, scientists see it as the
only way.
Remember Einstein? His equation e=mc^2 was actually conceptualized by Schopenhauer, a philosopher who lived a 100 years before Einstein. Schopenhauer had stated that energy and matter are interchangeable. Einstein simply put it in an equation, another form of representation: mathematical. Or atoms, who thought of those? greek philosophers did. The Euclidean or Cartesian plane, the dimensions of space by Kant, all philosophers.
I hope you see the point
