    Louis Braille got his inspiration to use embossed dots to represent letters after he watched Charles Barbier, a retired artillery officer in Napoleon’s army, demonstrate a note-taking system he invented of embossed dots to represent sounds (most of the soldiers were illiterate) that would allow notes to be passed among the ranks without striking a light, which might alert the enemy to their position.

    The army was not impressed, so Barbier brought his system to the school for the blind. Louis immediately recognized its merits and spent the next three years improving upon Barbier’s idea.

    In 1824, when Braille was only 15 years old, he developed a six-dot “cell” system. He used Barbier’s system as a starting point and cut its 12-dot configuration in half. The system was first published in 1829; a more complete elaboration appeared in 1837.

    Calcium was first isolated in 1808 in England by Sir Humphry Davy when he electrolyzed a mixture of lime and mercuric oxide.

    As an alkaline earth metal, Calcium is a reactive metal that forms a dark oxide-nitride layer when exposed to air. Its physical and chemical properties are most similar to its heavier homologues strontium and barium.

    It is the fifth most abundant element in Earth’s crust, and the third most abundant metal, after iron and aluminium. The most common calcium compound on Earth is calcium carbonate, found in limestone and the fossilised remnants of early sea life; gypsum, anhydrite, fluorite, and apatite are also sources of calcium.

    The name derives from Latin calx “lime”, which was obtained from heating limestone.
