Nomenclature
Jacques de Billy (March 18, 1602 – January 14, 1679) was a French Jesuit mathematician. Billy produced a number of results in number theory which have been named after him. He published several astronomical tables and was one of the first scientists to reject the role of astrology in science. He also rejected old notions about the malevolent influence of comets.
