Pascal's work in the fields of the study of hydrodynamics and hydrostatics centered on the principles of hydraulic fluids. His inventions include the hydraulic press (using hydraulic pressure to multiply force) and the syringe. By 1646, Pascal had learned of Evangelista Torricelli'sexperimentation with barometers. Having replicated an experiment which involved placing a tube filled with Mercury upside down in a bowl of mercury, Pascal questioned what force kept some mercury in the tube and what filled the space above the mercury in the tube. At the time, most scientists contended that, rather than a vacuum, some invisible matter was present. This was based on the Aristotelian notion that creation was a thing of substance, whether visible or invisible; and this substance was forever in motion. Furthermore, "Everything that is in motion must be moved by something," Aristotle declared.[12] Therefore, to the Aristotelian trained scientists of Pascal's time, a vacuum was an impossibility. How so? As proof it was pointed out:

In 1642 Blaise Pascal invented the pascaline, the first adding machine using gears, to help his father calculate taxes. William Seward Burroughs invented a different kind of adding machine in 1885.
she did not help him with his experiments because they were separated for most of their marraige
The ancient Romans developed an Abacus. Blaise Pascal, however, was a French mathematical genius, and at the age of 19, he invented a machine, called the Pascaline, that could do addition and subtraction. He invented this machine to help his father, who was also a mathematician.
