Fun fact: the word “algorithm” is named after its inventor, Persian (Iranian) mathematician Al Khwarizmi, who lived 1300 years ago. He is also the father of algebra (named after his book Al Jabr) and popularized the number system we all use today.https://www.britannica.com/biography/al-Khwarizmi …

Of course, we are not discussing historical information. By "no Iran", I did not mean the name of the country or the geographical area, but the current regime. Which means that, those inventors (AI Khawarizmi...) didn't live in such current regime.

My post didn’t reference any regime. If you took it that way it wasn’t my intent. Iran has been “Iran” for ~3,000 years. Western media refers to Iran’s history and culture of science, art, and poetry by the name “Persia” but it is has always been “Iran” — the good and the bad.
