We all here would have heard about 2 legends of all times! Lucas Pacioli and Sir Issac Newton Right? But here is an interesting thought about something these 2 people have contributed to this world.

Sir Issac Newton(1642 - 1727)  has Laws of Motion and the 3rd Law of Motion as we all know " Every Action has an equal and an opposite reaction"

Lucas Pacioli(1445 - 1517) the father of doube entry accounting made a system which says " Every transaction has a debit and a corrosponding credit"

Now just spot the lifetime period both lived!!!! Now, who got inspired from whom?? Scientists or accountants?? Who has better history??? :-):-):-)
