René Descartes is not credited as the first scientist to make a graph, but he significantly contributed to the development of coordinate geometry, which laid the foundation for graphing mathematical functions. His work in the early 17th century introduced the Cartesian coordinate system, allowing geometric shapes to be represented algebraically and vice versa. While graphs existed in various forms before him, Descartes' innovations enabled more systematic and mathematical graphing methods.
