OUGHTRED William, anglais, 1574-1660 log (a x b) = log(a) + log(b) Gunter Oughtred est à l'origine de plusieurs de nos notations usuelles On lui doit : en algèbre : pour signifier + ou - ainsi que x pour la multiplication en géométrie, il utilisa le signe pour désigner un angle dans son traité de trigonométrie ( Trigonometria , 1657). Cette notation est encore utilisée par les anglais et aux USA : ABC désigne ce que l'on note généralement, en France : : l'angle de sommet B, de côtés [BA) et [BC). Cette dernière notation est due à Carnot dans sa Géométrie de position lettre p Jones Euler et Lambert sin pour le sinus , tan pour la tangente et sec Abu Al Wafa au 10è siècle.
