Descartes was a very philosophical person. In fact he's the father of modern philosophy
He thought the world on 3 axes, he had to do this while he was trying to solve the riddle of pappus.
But to be more specific he invented the coordinate system while he was sleeping with one oven at he's side and had 3 dreams.
the answer you're looking for, is that "Descartes dreamt the coordinate system, then he did it reality on a compendium of one of he's 3 books of philosopy"
