You can call me Al-Khwārizmī

Al-Khwārizmī, Persian astronomer and mathematician, is said to have written in Arabic in 825 AD, on the Hindu practice of calculating in an orderly manner by use of digits and decimals - precursors of binary numbers and binary math. While the Latin translation of his book title to "Algoritmi de numero Indorum" appears to transmogrify the author's name Al-Khwārizmī to "Algoritmi" additional research is required to determine any relationship with Internet inventor Al Gore.
