Directed numbers, also known as signed numbers, were not invented by a single person. They have been used for thousands of years to represent quantities that have both a magnitude and a direction. The concept of directed numbers was formalized by mathematicians in the 17th and 18th centuries, but it is likely that people have been using similar ideas for much longer.
