Did someone invent the
algebraic system of Chess notation or it
was a natural product of binary
technology?
Just curious.

Dear
viewer,
This very popular Chess notation is
credited to a system developed by Philipp Stamma (1705 -1755).
He was a Chess Master born in Aleppo, Syria and a later resident of
France and England.
The
algebraic system is now a standard form of Chess notation
replacing the older
descriptive Chess notation.
There is also a mate problem named for Philipp Stamma:
Stamma's mate / white to move and mate in 3
1. Nb4+ Ka1 2. Kc1 a2 3. Nc2#
